Do I have Turbo Tie Rods? (pics)

Hi Pelicans - before I go and remove the boots on the tie rods, any way to tell whether I've already got turbo tie rods on my '83SC? I am definitely going to replace the rod ends, but don't want to remove the boots if I don't have to, I hear the spring coil is tough to get back on. Is there a way to "feel through" the boot if visual inspection with the boot off is the only way to go?

Thanks, Pelicans!

Thanks! Nice to know I've got one job less for my suspension refresh (and save some $$!). Can you tell me what the give-away is?

The rubber cap before the boot on the rack.
