As far as I know Febi only makes the Sock Type Boots. The Stock Type Boots cannot be stretched over the axle Cans.
If for some reason you cannot get the Astoria Boot fast enough People like Myself have used the Dorman Boots. Like the Astoria Boots there is 2 types one for smaller vehicles and one for larger vehicles.
The Dorman Boot kit comes with a different type of Clamp and while the Kit has grease you will need more. Places like Autozone sell the Dorman Boots.
