My turn to replace a CV boot

[kpaske]

If your CVs are in good shape you only need replace the boots ($17 at Checker Auto). I think the are seeing $$$$$$$! I am just doing boots unless I find the CVs are bad...they look and sound okay so far.

I agree. I've replaced one of my CV boots twice for < $20 and the joint itself was in pristine condition. This time around I'm replacing all four with Mecatech boots and installing diff drop brackets.

This job is very messy, but not something an adventurous beginner couldn't do by themselves.
