You can't replace just the boot, so looks like it's time for an upgrade

That’s what I figured.

Would you guys recommend a certain brand over another? 1310 vs 1350? I know JE Reel and Adams seem to be the go to companies.

Well you can. They do sell that part. It doesn’t even look like the boot is torn. Really nothing wrong with it and the boot isn’t that necessary. The bigger issue with the factory shafts is the cv joint.

And the issue with the cv joint is the angle it’s at based on lift height correct? Have you replaced your DS yet? Curious since I think I’m running the same springs you are.

Yes that is correct. And I have replaced my driveshafts a few years ago.

Regarding the DS -- as mentioned, I wouldn't worry about the mid shaft boot. If the CV Joint boot gets torn that's another issue as the bearings will get contaminated and then ba-bye. Been there, done that.
