camlex Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Hello, Does anybody know how many years the CV joint boot will last? Everytime I change the oil, I always check and look at it and it looks good, but i never know when to change it. Any ideas? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 If it is oem about 5-7 years after market 3-4 Way too many variables for it to degrade though. Heat cold average temps turns and so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKperformance Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 If the boot is recently ripped or cracked and no bearing play can be found then you only need to replace the boot not the whole axle. Get the OEM boot kit from toyota ,it is only about $70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
