Hi Guys, Anybody know the answer to this, Is there a supplier for the little orange boot that keeps dirt and water away from the actuator rod?. Before you all answer, I have already sent pm to Aidan, just awaiting a reply. Actuator is still working so dont need to replace the whole thing.

ah the orange boot for vacuum unit - may have a good used one in the stash - no known supplier unless Baxter can get VDO to supply them or I can get Classic to get VDO to supply them

Even more importantly it creates the vacuum seal so that you can operate the difflock! Russel brought that to my attention when i was having lots of trouble with my rear locker!

To be fair it's Michael and Simon who are the stars for getting them in - worth adding one to one's next order for field repairs kit
