That will work too... if you can find some narrow ones. Then the question becomes.... can you get at the screw to tighten it?

Ty. I was considering the type of clamp with the screw in it. Idk what it is called. Usually around hoses....
There is an old product called "Indian head" its a thin gooey glue like stuff from way before RTV existed. Back in my youth I used that stuff on any rubber seal or boot for my off-road toys. You put that on the boots and the zip ties won't even matter. :icon_rofl:

Silicone gasket sealer. The goo in the tubes you use to seal stuff. RTV stands for room temperature vulcanization so RTV is the "cool kid term" lol.

Lmao. Don't worry when you get done all this stuff you'll be a cool kid too!!
Honestly I'm shocked at the stuff I have accomplished. I TRUELY appreciate all the help I get here. I'm hoping to have all this front end and get my new air lifts in Saturday and Sunday then my alignment Monday so I can get back to work.

Just so you know, nothing you do to the rear requires an alignment so you can do that after your Monday appointment.
