Do you have a Volvo or GKN part number? I have some GKN boots here but not sure of what they fit other then my 'R' but I also have another waif and not sure what it is for.

The only one I have found so far is a kit made by 'Empi' (oh the horror!) at IPD:

Your friends at FCP Euro show an inner GKN boot for a 98 V70 NA??

Was just looking at this site as I know Saab was in the general area as Volvo... I'm guessing they used some of the same transmissions but don't quote me on it.

Shaft diameters quoted above are wrong. I was measuring stub axle diameter

I got my inner passenger side of the '99 from Rockauto. Not sure if it's the same for your vehicle but it was a Rein BKN0132. It says that it replaces 31256221.
It's blowby

Definitely not the right one on the 1998 NA. That app shows an outer boot with a 14mm axle screw too, so I doubt it will fit an inner on any car
