Torn grease boots
Hey guys,
Ever since I bought my truck, the grease boots on the front end have been torn up and don't hold any grease at all. I just throw some grease in the joints from time to time, but I'm wondering if there's a fix for the problem. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Jeff

The joints don't seem to be bad, so I was hoping there was an easy fix. LOL at the duct tape!

Good luck. When you get into a situation where you really need 4wd, they will snap on you. Thats what happend to me. There not to bad to replace.

Mine's just a two-wheeler . . .
I'll check on those replacement boots. Thanks for the heads-up on 'em.
