Default Vehicle '1 Ton Steering' Comes off of?

I have a 90XJ that I installed Ruff Stuff's one ton steering on about 5 or 6 years ago. Steering has performed well. I recently pulled the steering off to do some work on the axle. Found the boots on the TREs are ripped. The TREs are still tight, so I am looking to replace just the boots. Looking for a year, make, and model for the typical 1 ton steering TREs too plug into the Amazon to find some new boots. Thanks.

My tie rod end boots have been ripped off for a few years now and my steering is still tight so I wouldn't sweat it too Much If worse comes to worst I'd probably just buy some new tie rod ends

They've been torn for quite a while and I haven't been too concerned. I found the part number for the TREs, but have been unable to find a replacement boot. I can get generic boots from Energy Suspension on Amazon for $10. I'll probably grab those and see how they fit. If I didn't already have it apart, I wouldn't worry about replacing them.
