    I think there are some from Drag Specialties that’ll work. I’ll check with Jim (Head Janitor / parts guru).

    the ones on e-bay have the set screw they arent the threaded ones that you used on your bikes, i called pro-one and they wont work and ds-174781 is a seal kit, thats not what i need i need the pro one dust boot covers because whoever assembled the front end used red thread locker on them and now they cant be removed without destroying them

    Ah sorry… I was thinking you were looking for the seals. so back to the original problem. I assume you’ve tried a Boa wrench. Also Pro-One has some other styles that fit. Are they out of all of them?

    I have a set of pro-one lower legs in storage and will sell you the caps… if you will send the damaged caps back to me so I can send them out to be striped, polished and re-chromed.

    Jim (head Janitor) says heat up the caps before using the soft wrench. The heat will re-liquify the red loc-tite and you will be able to remove the caps.
