If it is lowered more then 1 inch, I'd replace them with the Steeda ball joints designed for lowered cars. If not and the arms already have the ball joints installed, just use them. Better to be new then used.

To my knowledge, you cannot buy those boots at all. If you really wanted to be sneaky, go buy a stock replacement from any parts store, snag the boot, then return it as missing parts. But to get that far down to the boot, it is just plain smart to replace the whole joint.
