CV joints
 
my passenger cv joint boot is leaking, is there any way of just buying the boot and putting it on to replace the old one?

Yeah, but it's a real pita and isn't too much cheaper than a new axle.

Is it the inner or outer boot? The inner is SUPPOSEDLY easier. I'll find out when I do mine tomorrow.

if it's on the rim, it's the outer boot. and it ain't that hard to change.

so i can just go to honda and buy the outter boot?

Luis 07-24-2002 02:57 PM

yes. make sure they give you the grease too. just in case.

Sh1t, I need a bearing removal tool. This is gay...don't go to the dealer. They're going to charge you up the ass. Go to NAPA. Mine cost me $11.88 for boot, clamps, grease, etc etc

how much was it at honda....i get a discount just seeing if i can go with oem parts inset of NAPA, but if its cheaper what the hell.

The factory boot is not even a HONDA boot, I don't think. I didn't see any HONDA inscriptions. A boot is a boot.

Oh, and I never go to the dealer unless I can no way find it somewhere else. Dealer wanted 0.42 each for exhaust manifold nuts, hehe. I got mine for 0.08 each
