Title: Outter cv boot
Post by: kevinp58 on 08 June 2013, 23:02:26

Quite a fag to change. It means taking off the half shaft and replacing it afterwards. It's easier getting a second hand shaft from a scrappie, and probably as cheap, time you have bought the boot and the grease.

They're about £60 all in from Vx but choice of two or three different types if shaft :-\

Might get lucky and find New Old Stock for a fraction of that :y got mine from Now Vauxhall in West Byfleet for about £20 :y

There's a drive shaft for sale on e-bay for £11.24 in New Romney, Kent. If you are anywhere near there nip down there and buy it!
