I picked up all 4 CV boots at the stealership today.....51 dollars for everything, and it came with grease, clamps and everything. I need a writeup on installing the outer boots....thats all im gonna do for the time being, i think the inner's are ok for now. somebody help me out. thanks.

 

well, no replies....i guess that means that theres absolutley no write ups anywhere....searching didnt help either....i guess i'll have to figure it out somehow.

 

hey bob!

this might help, its not the same year as yours but the info should give you all you need to do this.

i'm a newb to 4 runners, but i did an outer boot replacement on a honda accord and the boot grease slung all over the brake rotors warping the crap out of them

you prolly have a totally different boot system going, but just thought i'd throw that in there

Bob, for my education, why would you replace your cvboots?
What symptoms are you experiencing to replace the cvboots? Thank you

 

well, theres a giant tear in one, the got old and uhh...brittle. And i think both of them tore, because there is grease all over the Control arms. I Am proabably gonna fool with this in the next few days. If i encounter problems ill be on here. From my knowledge, if u dont replace torn boots you'll break a CV joint, cause it looses all the grease and can get dirt and stuff in there... BTW thanks for responding everybody, didnt think id get any.

 

Anyone do the cheap trick mod of replacing the studs on the stub axles with bolts? Can this be done on the vehicle? Or do the stubbies have to pulled from the diff?
