I was looking under my C5 today and noticed a cut in my rear CV boot.
I had to do a quick fix till I get one. I put permetex apoxie on the cut.
Anyone know where to order one off the internet?
Next Question. I have what looks like rear tie rods. on the back end. Is that what they are called or something else?

Have you checked Rock Auto or Amazon for the boot?

"END KIT RR SUSP ADJ LINK OTR" IOW, GM-speak for outer "tie rod end". GM part number GM Part 88955488 I'm finding about $80.xx each (~)
Free advice, and worth every penny. Don't just title your thread "need some help". You can attract knowledgeable people on your needed help if you put what the problem is in the title. Plus you and others with a similar question can easily search for the answers later. There are currently three threads titled "need help" or similar.
I just bought a rebuilt axle for 45 bucks at Carquest
too much hassle to find a damn boot!
I work part time for Advance Auto Parts, and I've seen replacement boots on our shelves. I haven't however, checked to see if they fit a Corvette....
UPDATE!
Dorman makes a universal replacement boot. According to the wording on the box, it's for axles with CV joints that are 3 5/8" or larger, in OD. It's part number 614-004.
