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?

[right][snapback]315218[/snapback][/right] That's the Ingall's camber bolt.  Thanks for all the advice everyone.  I went ahead and ordered a rebuilt axle from this local place that has a very good reputation. It will cost $70 with the core discount and will be here tomorrow. I'm currently stuck on pulling the axle out of the tranny...I can't really find a way to get good leverage, but I think with two people we can somehow get it off. So when my dad gets home he's going to help me. I'm just hoping we don't damage the seal, because the AT200 C52 seals do not fit the AE101 C52 tranny. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
