Before replacing anything...
Are the boots split or just leaking at the clamps?
I have seen cheezy zip ties used as clamps on a few cars.
I suggest you locate the source of the grease leak(s) first.
If you have a small tear in the boot, it can be patched with a tire patch made for a small bicycle tire. If it is the clamps that are leaking, post back and I'll dig up the NAPA clamp and installation tool part numbers. Repairs can be done while shaft is on the car.
Early cars (like yours) had a problem with the end boots hitting the chassis when bottoming-out the suspension. If yours are original boots, you did REAL well. If you lost a lot of grease you will need to replace it and burp the boot of excess air after adding grease. My contact info is below.
