Steering boot

I was just looking in my 1996 Explorer and the steering column under the hood has this ball joint part that is covered by a boot, for some reason my boot has busted in half leaving only a small shard of it on there. Is there any sort of replacement part, how easy is it to replace?

I have same thing on our 96 explorer as well. Mechanic told me not to worry about it since it's not a hi-speed linkage, and is already basically protected. Still, I'd like to replace that boot but have not found wher to get one or how to replace it.

Well might as well leave it then. I am sure that a guy could get some sort of shock boot from a motorcycle store and cut a slit in it and zip tie to the joint. I am going to just leave it. I didn't think it was a big deal.
