Ball joint & Tie rod boot tears

On my 2009 2wd 2.3 coil spring truck i noticed both the outer tie rods and lower ball joint boots are torn on both sides. The outer tie rod and ball joints are still in good shape though. I found some generic "univeral" replacement tie rod boots but I imagine they are garbage. Didn't find anything for the ball joints. Anyone got any ideas how to repair or replace the boots before the joints get ruined? They are the originals (no zerk) with only 65k miles and like I said in perfect shape otherwise.
