As a result, Subaru decided to use butyl rubber boots on the CV joints, and due to the exhaust being close to the front inner boots, they don't last very A silicone rubber boot was what I looked for when I was replacing the driver's side this time. My replacement butyl rubber boot failed again when this one failed, so I'll use this one on the other side. My original steel clamp bands were not very sturdy, so I replaced them with much heavier ones from the auto parts store (if I had thought faster, I could have reused my OEM screwdriver The bands were type bands, however they had been cut It is true that if you get to the CV joint soon after the boot splits, you will not need to replace the entire CV axle. However, this is not true if you do the following In most cases, simply removing the axle, disassembling and cleaning the CV joint, repacking the grease, then reinstalling the axle with the new boot should solve any problem (the CV joint was fine It seems better for me to try this method rather than using a CV axle rebuilt to unknown quality standards, or paying a high fee for the dealer to replace the CV shaft with an OEM shaft (especially if the OEM boots only last five In the event that you have to pay someone else, that is fine. If you have to pay a shop's labor rates to replace the shaft, it is cheaper to get a new one.
In the box, there were no bands. The company continues to be recommended to me. The first time I bought these, I bought them The entire review can be read here. You should try them out. I have them on my car now and they're A Dorman air powered installation tool was used for the installation. In my 2010 Toyota Corolla, I needed to replace only the outer CV boots on both sides. As I was unsure if the right fit was available, I called Dorman. The part number they gave me was incorrect. After making a long drive, I bought them from an AutoZone in another county (I had to travel). Not only were they the wrong size, but one of the boxes was missing two bands. It was not only missing bands, but they needed a special tool to be installed as well. It was the tech guy at Dorman who said I didn't have one but I do. I shopped at several parts stores looking for the tool - The only way to get it was online. I had to get the kind that's tightened with a screwdriver. The following suggestions remain my recommendation for them 1 *br It's best to buy from Amazon well in advance or to buy them locally after getting a wrong or incomplete There are a few parts stores where you can find 3.
Make sure you buy the band tool from Amazon before attempting to install it. There will be no need for any other site, and it will also be cheaper. The third part. Make sure you double-check any advice you receive from a Dorman technician. In case you don't wish to pull the whole axle, you can use Dorman's stretcher. If you can replace the outer CV boot, you can replace the whole axle, but some axles are just so hard to remove that it is not worth it. There is a good chance that you will already have the CV boots installed if you purchase the whole axle!.
Despite being flexible, the boot material feels sturdy. Nevertheless, there was no small clamp for the shaft - instead, they sent two large clamps. The grease here is far too little, as though it should pack this joint with half as much grease as it does. There should be a small clamp for the shaft end. I am very confused why they sent two clamps for the shaft end and no small clamps. The second large one is either going to have to be be cut to the right size or I've got to work my arse off fabricating it. Buying another after thinking I had the entire kit would not be a good idea. I am pretty tired of parts dealers pulling BS on me I mean, come on, that is a TINY amount of grease for a CV There is an impression that many parts dealers do not actually expect you to use the parts they sell you. In a kit that consists only of two of four necessary components, you are just taking the easy route by selling only two of them.
As long as nothing sharp gets to it and punctures it, it seems thin and flexible, but I expect it to last quite a while. The gloves that came with the boots were well suited and the gloves that came with the boots contained enough grease to make one boot. Several of the measurements were correct. We didn't need to trim it.
This is most definitely not true. It was only when I disassembled the axle that I discovered it. I took that route since there is only one supplier for the inner boot, and a new axle was only $80. As the car had 350k miles on it, the only other option was to get the inner boot from the dealership.
The item fits as intended. It appears to be a good, strong rubber and silicon I only gave it 4 stars since the zip ties were metal. I'll see if the quality of the product holds up over time. I did not specify in the description that it must be tightened and crimped using that special tool.
My 1963 Plymouth Valiant's ball and trunnion driveshaft was plagued by a moldy rubber boot, so I decided to use this universal silicone boot as a replacement. I am very pleased with the results. If you lubricate this boot first (so you don't tear it while pulling it) you can easily pull it through the enclosure without having to remove the center pin. Just be sure to cut off the two larger mounting rings from the boot first with a sharp pair of It is much cheaper than the reproduction boot, and it is made of silicone, so it should last longer. This product has been a great success for me!.
A great solution for a single-person business A boot that fits. If you use silicone boots, you won't have to worry about rubber or plastic cracking. Despite this, they may tear more easily if they come into contact with something sharp. They will last for a long time if you treat them nicely.
