Johnboy GT Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 MorningLooking for someone to tell me the easiest way to change my CV boots. Where is best to split the drive shaft and any problems I am likely to incur. Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is one of the last few jobs on a dwindling mot list.CheersJohn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GP82 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 It's pretty straight forward Wheels offsafety pin and cap offundo the hub nut with a breaker barpull driveshaft out from inner side of the hubnow you can change over bootstake old ones off, new ones on with plenty high velocity grease I don't use the metal securing clips that come with the boot kits, i find that a good wide cable tie works better.

Ollieh17 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Take the shaft off as above. Little circlip on the inner bearings, undo that and they slide off. You can then change the boots without stretching them over the cv joints etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
