Torn CV Boot 850 1996

Thanks for the tips, guys. I guess I need to try the test with the car first before I decide. I'm inclined to replace the whole axle, it's only $120 plus a $75 core for a rebuilt one and then I know it's not going to fail down the line (well, hope it's not going to fail). But now that I think about it, this boot has been torn for awhile if that's what's been making the rubber-rubbing sound on that wheel every time it hit a bump for the past several months. I don't live near the beach or the desert, but still.

Well, I'll go out tonight and test it when the parking lots are empty. Guess I'm inclined to just swap out the whole unit. We'll see.

Thanks again for the advice.
