Whats the part for the new 'kit'?

I have a friend who needs the boots if you only need seals maybe we can sort something out?

Ahh those are the washers that stop the bush from moving, and never need to be replaced :/

Ive seen them fitted both ways, but usually up as its easier to lever them out later.
