[ROVERNET - UK] Rubber boot needed

[Eric Russell]

Isn't it the case that there is a large cylinder of
steel permantly fixed to the end of the cable over
which the small rubber boot would have to be pulled? 
The boot was probably installed before the end was
fitted.  That would make refitting a "stand-alone"
boot very difficult.

You probably only have a choice of forgetting about it
and lather some anti-seize compound on that area or
developing a work-around as has been suggested.
