CV Boot Replacement Plan - Correct me where I am wrong

[JAMAS]

Ok, so I could buy the dormans and replace as needed using HD zip ties. I could see your point about the metal causing more damage than good if I dont do it right. Is that what others have done too?

This would be the much cheaper option and if they dont work out, I can always buy the more expensive stuff second. What kind of grease do I get? I read that the grease that comes with the dormans is not nearly enough.

I do have 2 used OEM boots coming to me in MOAB from the wonderful VX Kat, so I could then keep those as spares as the others rip. I like the idea of replacing everything with new, but not if they are worse than the old ones.

I never had an issue with the quantity of grease that comes with the Dormans.

I've used the metal band & zip tie option...

..metal is a PIA!

Heavy duty Zips snugged into grooves works well

Jon I also have for you a used Passenger inner boot (CarQuest brand) used for about 1 year. If you need that one now if it would help, just holler and I can ship it.
