what would the disadvantage be of not using the boots that came with the shocks besides getting dirt on the shock rod?

Leaving them on is worse. You'll trap shat against them by doing that.


.02 cnd.

I agree. If you leave them on, the mud, sand, etc is going to stay inside instead of washing away. They are for looks.
 
I ran them on my MJ for 3 years with no problems. My current XJ I left them off, with no problems.

Salt, dirt, etc. IMO, I don't think that it matters either way.
 
I have one shock boot on out of my 4 shocks. After I ripped one off the back axle, I got some boots when I ordered a new one, but only got far enought to put it on the one I replaced.
