Default Tie Rod Ends
Are these original GM Tie rod end boot/ seals? They were on my 1972 Trans Am when I got it in 1982 with 73,000 miles. The inners are white and the outers are orange.

Thanks for any input.

Original GM/Saginaw boots look like this. There is a sealing lip on the end that aftermarket ball joints and tie rods usually don't have.
