Fabtek lift question

I just had a 3" Fabtek suspension lift installed on my 2000 Tundra. The front boots closest to the transfer case spit a little bit of grease at exactly the same place on both sides. The boots are not torn anywhere. Do I need to replace the boots? They stopped spitting grease after a couple of days. Should I worry?

If they stopped spitting grease after a few days I'd be worried that there is no more grease in the boot... which is very bad! That means your CV joint will go bad soon!

I'm not a Tundra drive myself, but I know that other T100 drivers install manual hubs in the front (I will be doing so shortly) so that the CV joint is not functioning unless I put it in 4WD and lock the hubs.

You may try 4x4wire or TundraSolutions if you don't get any more information here.
