Yep... Now the other side needs some CV boots. Must have a small tear because there isn't a ton of grease all over the inside of my wheel well...
But The side I already did does have a bunch of grease all over!!
It appears as though I didn't get the clamp on tight enough and it's leaking from the outside of the boot (toward the tire) [it's the passenger side lower boot].
I think I'll be able to take care of that one without a full dismantle. Just have to brake clean it really good, regrease it {Recomendations on Grease??} Then put it back together with a new clamp {Where can I get just a clamp/Band??}
Have we come to a consensus on what Boots are best :D With the white stuff coming any day I'm not sure when I'll be able to get to the boots, what is recommended to prevent any major damage? I drive about 3 miles at a time. And figure I'll be driving maybe 25 miles a week.
garbage bags? Duct tape? Pray? ;)
