Amjad Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Recently had a ball joint replaced about a month(ish) ago and it's already torn it's boot! Noticed some cracks in my CV boots and wanted to know which ones most people rate. I don't want to have to get them replaced again so soon like the ball joint, so please let me know below!

Amjad Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Gonna go with the ones ID-Workz recommend last longest, but thanks for the posts. Would be interesting to see how you get on with those Daniel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet__SR Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Whats wrong with OEM boots? They do well to last aslong as they do. Fitting poly boots will be a pain as they're stiffer and more likely to slip off. Day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Yeh havent heard good things about the poly boots Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Arnold Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Got mine from Camskill, pretty cheap and comes with the lube and clips included Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Just that the ones that were fitted have cracked and split after 2 years. Toyota wanted £76 for one Not after an upgrade per se, just something that will last Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The plasticky type ones will crack due to being far more brittle.Day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevonGT Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 The ADL are good quality, got them on mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

_shaun_ Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 the poly ones are ment to be pretty bad for splitting. i belive if memory serves correct it was socks that had them. id asked where he got them from when i was looking for some and he told me to stay clear as they just didnt have enough movement so just split Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Those Crail runs killed them haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Scoobysvx Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Yeh mate when I tried to do mine I ordered glanza boots but they were too short, I know the new ones will be a lot tighter but it still wasn't happening, as soon as your turn the joint slightly it just popped straight off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
