BJ Spacer Install

1991 4runner 4x4 V6. just got done with a bj spacer and cruiser coil lift, but my CV boots are rubbing against my shock every time the front wheels go around. my boots have three little screws on them that are hitting the shock. Im running rancho 5167 shocks in the front. any way to prevent this from happening?

i'd be willing to bet they are the quicky replace type boots that bolt together along a seam so you don't have to pull the axle

Sounds like you need to pull your axles and reboot them with real boots. I plan on running the downey heavy duty cv boots when I finally get my rig lifted. http://www.downeyoff-road.com/Chassi...riveTrain.html
