So i just picked up my car from gettin the front wheel bearings replaced, and the mechanic said i need a front CV boot on the passenger side. I've done some searching on 6GC and haven't reall found much about it. Does anyone know if there is a how to on here that i could use to do it myself Im kinda short on cash and can't afford to pay someone to do it for me.
Also, Would it be best to use the OEM boot or should any CV boot be alright to use?

As far as ive seen man, costs to replace the boots will probably be equal to or exceed the cost of you replacing the axle yourself, and if the boot is busted chances are the CV joint itself will soon fail, meaning more $ anyway.
you can replace one side axle at a time entire axles sell for as little as $50. This post has been edited by samir0189: Jun 28, 2009 - 7:54 PM -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.
