d22 1998 navara suspension

[regals]

Hey guys I have a nissan navara 3.2L diesel and im thinking of replacing the shock absorbers.
to me it seem the new shock absorbers online are opposite to mine? My back shocks have boots on them and the front ones dont but with the new ones the front has boots on and the back doesnt

any help please

boots only to protect from dirt and debree getting into the shock pistons.
im pretty sure my back ones are protected but my fronts arent.
when we did a mates all 4 of his had boot, but the front ones touched the steering when they were compressed, so it was going to wear a hole in them anyway (boots only not the shaft)

Cheers man so it doesnt really.matter where the boots are its just there to protect it

that's my assumption, but im not a qualified sustention man

if you really need to know a quick call to pedders might get your questions answered, ive never had issues getting info off them in the past.
