    I completed my passenger side CVBoot swap last night. I have yet to take it for a test drive, but everything seems okay based on visual inspection alone.

    During said visual inspection, I did a compare against my driver side to make sure I didnt forget anything and realized that my driver side boot is very very worn and appears to be on its way to splits-ville. I will be replacing those boots in the next couple days.

    I have no road experience with them, but after holding an OEM, Dorman, and NAPA CV Boot in my hand, I can tell you that the NAPA feels the most heavy duty. Feels like they could take some hits without breaking.

    Yah, I'd posted this pic a long time ago (L-R: AutoZone, MechaTech, Dorman):
