You did all the work already to take the cv axle out though 🤔 all you qould have to do is pull it out and undo a snap ring (in most cases) it would probably be quicker even 🤔🤔🤣🤣

[@uenragedbro]

No, the outer boot only comes out after the inner boot comes out. This saves tons of time, axle seals and circlips, if you replace them. But he didn't pack it with grease

[@robobrien6967]

@@uenragedbro so two snap rings my bad and no one ever replaces the axle seals unless they were previously leaking it literally would take about the same amount of time as this literally as this car sit he could just pop the axle out and break the clamps holding the inner and outer boot on pop the ring out split the axle shaft pop the second ring off and remove the outer boot and reassemble with grease the rings literally pop out easy as hell it's not hard and usually when yo by a cv axle rebuild kit you get everything to do this including grease but the time it takes to rebuild a cv axle is like nothing however you still need you get the knuckle out of the way that's where all your times at so this tool is useless and a waste of money

[@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983]

In my comment I describe how I would use a split Boot and never have a problem with it back in the nineties. The big thing is you did not have to take anything apart. If you're going to take apart this far well rebuild the shaft with new CV joints or just replace it. Of course you better check and probably should only pull one shaft at a time and be sure to put the plug in so not to screw up the alignment or lose fluid. It all depends on the car. Like the old Mitsubishi in the Dodge 600 and what have you. You did one side at a time.

[@hellcatredeye-g6582]

Personally, as a mechanic, it’s just easier to replace the axle. Definitely interesting how they put it on though 😏👍

[@ChrisPBolsak]

The use case for this is if rebooting is ~$80 but the axle itself is $800, especially if you want to stay OEM instead of going aftermarket

[@allengreer8751]

[@name-less7268]

Two weeks later its clicking around corners. For the corner you cut by not replacing the half shaft. Boot 40 dollars axle 80 let's do the boot!😂

[@modifiedmechanix]

Lost are getting over 400$ with long wait times

[@name-less7268]

@@modifiedmechanix I have a shop. Most axles are nearly shot by the time they get a "boot service". They have usually been ripped for at least enough time for the grease to fling out and dirt to contaminate them. What's that tool cost 400 bucks. What do you charge to put the boot on? From what the video looks like you have to take off the same amount or more to get the room for the tool. One more step and the old worn out axle is popped out and the new one can be installed. I dont see the value in this. Constant velocity shaft should be replaced 90 percent of the time! Replacing the boot is a hack job. I have also seen ripped boots caused by metal from the CV coming apart from the inside.

[@modifiedmechanix]

@name-less7268 these would be normally be used on one's that were noticed in routine maintenance or just happened to caught before any click or damage could be felt. We get alot of mud and hunting rigs in and it's normally a puncture from brush or rocks wouldn't suggest it to a shop that doesn't less than 5 or 6 a week buts its makes its money back after you do a couple

​@@modifiedmechanixwhat warranty do you give for this type of repair? What was the labor cost?

[@deant876]

Back in the early 90's when I became an auto mechanic, they sold speedy repair boot. The problem with putting a new boot on an axle that has split open, is all of the moisture and dirt that got into the axle while it was open. You have gone this far into reairing the boot, just spend the extra $100-$150 and replace the axle. Or you will be replacing it anyway in a year when the dirt wears out the joint

[@roybriggs1951]

Damn straight

[@deven6518]

So if your axle you got not too long ago, or is in good condition, needs a boot, throw it away? Uh, no. Change the boot. There is something called brake cleaner. As for the gluing, many cv boots are glued. There's cyanoasghu cv n g in glue (super glue) and well agents (rubber vulcanizing glue). With no gaps, it'll last years.

So this has been around since the 1980s nothing new if you have a car thats not worth much and won't have long its a great alternative. But if its a nice car don't waste your time .the grease it contaminated now it will eventually wear out the ball and socket join in axel and the cheap rubber boots aren't very robust. The cv joint comes off faster than you can operate that boot stretcher just replace the joint and boot with oem equivalent.better yet just replace the whole axel. And not with those cheap Chinese axels that vibrate under hard acceleration right out of the box .theres never time to do it right but always time to do it twice😂😂😂😂😂

[@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983]

Back in the eighties and specialty through the nineties they used to sell a split boot. You did not have to take anything apart. And the secret was to Put ATV clear silicone to 25-year version. Put it along that scene and then screw it together with the little screws that came with it. Then I would use Gates water and heater hose clamps plus a ATV at both ends and let us set a couple of days. Remember back then Gates clamps were fantastic! But I never had one of them to leak. How to do it for other people without any guarantees and usually on the weekends or when I had two days off in a row. Have them come back for the car 4 days after I was finished. I think I only charge anywhere from 35 to 50.00 plus the $7 for the boot. It was good spending money. If I was going to take this apart this far I would probably just pull the axle put the plug in. Replace the whole axle or at least the CV joints and not just the boots 👢. But I love this tool that this guy has
