FocusTDDI Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Need to get my o/s inner cv boot replaced, took the car to the garage the other day for front ARB replacement (£292!) and lo and behold, when they "looked" at it, the cv boot destroyed itself and greased everything, must only happen to mechanics, because it did bugger all when I looked at an hour before. Anyway, after being quoted £60 to repair the damage I decided to do it myself so was wondering which is the best cv boot to use, stretch, zip or glue. If anyone's done this some helpful info would be really appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FocusTDDI Posted June 8, 2009 Author Share Posted June 8, 2009 Thanks for that mintalkin, really useful. Went with the stretchy boot as the guy in the factors said it should go on without removing the tripod, anything for an easy life :) ...then again, if I'd wanted it easy I shouldn't have bought a Ford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
