    BTW, if the kit did not come with the bands for the boots, the shop should either have some on hand or be able to get them. As an alternative, I used heavy duty zip ties on mine for 2 years with no problem.

    Either pick up or tell the shop that you want synthetic grease when they assemble the CV. Marine grease would be even mo betta.

    This might help you locate some of the parts you're looking for:

    Nice, I use zip ties too. I use two smaller (width) zip ties per one metal band.

    Haven't had any issues and they're much easier to install.

    Thanks for refreshing my rememory. The HD zipties were too wide & didn't stay in place so I ended up using ordinary grade zipties instead & they worked much mo betta.
