My driver's side CV boot is torn I think.
 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.  So what do you guys think?

If you're pulling the axle just to replace the boot you might as well replace the whole axle. You DO NOT wand to do it twice. Do you know how long that axle has been in there? If it's original I'd just replace the bitch and be done with it.
