CV Boot Replacment
I've been searching around and read a lot about the boots comming apart after lifts on the 3rd gens. I can't seem to find what is exactly involved with putting the long travel CV boots on. Is it a total pain, or should I just keep swapping axles? Has there been a good fix for this issue?

It's a real PITA unless you are lucky and find a 4wd tacoma spindle assembly with manual locking hubs. Be sure to get ABS or non ABS spindles depending on your application if you go that route.
New, wheel hubs are $130 each, then add about $250 for bearings and seals, then you need some custom built axles (you need to put the half shafts on the ADD type axles)
Nix99 sells a kit for $575 IIRC, comes with the spindles, axles, and manual lockouts.
Here's a good write up but more in depth ones can be found with a search

I think I'll stick with what I got. I don't plan on dumping that kind of dough into this thing right now. Has anyone done the swap for the high angle boots?
