While nothing like OE, Energy Suspension has some urethane tie rod boots for Mopar. I haven't used them yet, so can't comment on how they work.

The only factory appearing replacement boots to my knowledge are supplied through PG Classics or one of their vendors. Expect to pay around $155.00 for a complete kit as they do not sell the various boots individually.

Good original would be fine. Yeah, I seen the kit from Classics before. Kinda pricey. Also I see universal boots for sale on ebay. Has anyone tried them?

IIRC, true OE snap on boots require OE tie rods that are machined for that provision. Otherwise the don't fit right.

And someone that knows what and OE boot looks like, also knows how they are supposed to fit.

I thought MP sold an OE kit years ago. Very pricey at that time.

I think that “looks” like the old MP kits.

Don’t know about PG Classic rubber quality.

Their stuff typically is form over function. But really a case by case deal.
