CV Boot clamps, what can I use?
Hello,
I just cleaned, inspected and re lubed my front half shafts and I can't get the old boot clamps back on, at least not all of them... how critcal of a part are they? I.E. would hose clamps work ok? bailing wire? zip ties etc. or do I need to get some replacement CV boot clamps?
thanks

I've been using hose clamps for the past 3-4 years, I like them better than the stock clamps because you can get them tight enough to prevent grease from leaking out of them, especially the inner boot.
