There's a problem with that which is why you don't find them on line. You can exchange your whole axle all checked with whatever new but always new boots for less that any kit plus you have to take it apart to do just a boot. If already letting water and dirt in it now it's too late - damage is on it's way. They used to make a product I think called "Quick Boots" for CV shafts that were split and you used mini nuts and bolts to hold it together after cleaning and regreasing a joint and haven't heard on one for decades. It didn't work anyway. Do you have any other choices? The absolute right thing to do is get a whole one redone and either pay the core charge and keep yours or pay to send it back or if at all possible just swap at a real parts outlet which may be a problem for you? If the total problem you really do have a problem, T

Nobody changes boots any more. The whole axle is not very expensive and the extra labor to take the axle apart to replace the boot cancels out the difference in price. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

I did once and never again. About (long time ago) an Audi, 100LS early for a FWD vehicle in or about 1975 car less than 3 years old. Cost of joints and boots exceeded $400US then! Needed all parts for just one axle for a strange reason I'll never know. Nuff said, T

I've seen axles now as cheap as $60-$70 and new, not reman. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Exactly and the reason to NOT seek out just parts of one, T
