ABSTRACT:
A steering linkage includes a housing which movably supports a sleeve member within a housing bore. The sleeve carries a socket which receives a stud and the stud extends through openings in the sleeve member and the housing. A flexible boot sealingly engages the stud and the housing to retain lubricant within the housing bore and keep out contaminants. As the stud is movable relative to the housing and sleeve member openings, the stud carries a resilient ring opposing the flexible boot to prevent the flexible boot from coming in contact with the sleeve and housing openings, thereby preventing the flexible boot from being pinched by the movable parts within the housing bore. The resilient ring is larger in diameter than the sleeve member opening and is disposed substantially within the housing opening.
