I bought these while trying to find something comparable to replace the original failing fork boots on a Fox campus I am in the process of rebuilding, far from a dead on match but not a bad look to them and they are built well and should be doable. I stumbled into an NOS set of boots and some other Fox goodies recently that I can use for my campus so I wont need these but maybe someone else can.
One I had tried on the bike:
Compared to an NOS set for reference:
Again not exact by any means but they are doable and dont look too bad on the bike. they are much thicker and stronger than the fox ones, you will not be able to utilize the original fox clamps though. I was going to to use the chrome plated zip ties they sell or something like that for them. May be doable on some other apps too. one side is a tight 1" and the other is a slip/loose 1" so the may work good on some internal spring situations alright to on maybe some bigger trail bikes.
These boots are only available online by the piece ( I guess the Mule only uses one of these) the cheapest I could find them anywhere was 20 shipped plus sales tax for 1 so this little experiment cost me a little over $40 , you can have this PAIR for half price $23 shipped
