My driver's side CV boot is torn I think. frown.gif Some pics are below.





Is this a torn CV boot? If so, should I just replace that, or should I replace the whole axle? I absolutely hate pulling axles out and had issues with my axle not sealing at the tranny for a good three months last time my axle was pulled on the driver side. mad.gif

So what do you guys think? frown.gif

ok if you don't want to change it do this.. go to home depot or any harware store.. and get some hi heat rubber and some metal zip ties and just cover up the boot so the great doesnt' come out .
