not for a hundred, no thanks

no way Id do that job myself. nup

Yeah I've had the outers done on the front both shafts preiously profesionally and I organised adams 260 and got that done too. But yeah as I said it was more a learning curve, wuldnt do it again!

While under car fitting new FF plenum noticed split outer boots on both sides.

After going partly insane getting tho old plenum out, came here for some R&R.

I'll order the boots Monday, and book the local Mobile Mech (he is excellent) as reading this has put me off DIY. Thank you Chris.

Allrighty... I've had a split cv boot for a while know as some may be aware about threads on pulling shaftsDRIVE SHAFT REMOVAL and post from other bits and pieces in regards to boots...

So when can I bring mine around as I have only just found out last night my right hand one split and splatted over the inner wheel well

I'll be taking it to a mates shop after all that

Last time I did one was in 2001 on my Suzuki GTI but that was easy than this sounds

Well I did my driver side inner CV boot today as I notice mine looked like it split but after taking to unit out the boot just slipped off.

I was going to take it to a shop to do it after they all said it will talk a full day to get it running again but as you have mate's that said that Bulls I bet you we'll be done in 1-2 hours max

so as you do take that bet on

So I followed everyone's tip to get this right the first time and it had made my life a lot easier as I couldn't not believe it needed a 36mm to undo the the nut on the hub but yeah it right as 36mm for a S2 as well.

After followed the steps and found the shaft wasn't that hard to pull out as some say come to think of it it was easy for me didn't need a second pair of hand so anyway fixed done and happy but I will need to replace all out and inner boots in time so have a mate looking to get me the GEN parts at a cheaper rate

And the bet They won just under 2 hour and we stopped for a smoko and beer so now I have to buy the beer for tonight party

Good bloody fun. Mobile mech $75, both sides, Kelpro boots COB 010.

Too easy.

All he had to do was

1 Take off hub

2 Separate bottom ball joint

3 Tie rod end

4 Swaybar Link.
