225 Outer CV Boot

Discussion in 'Mechanical - Engine, Gearbox, Exhaust etc' started by Toby85, May 1, 2016.

  1. Hi all. Anyone replaced a front outer CV boot- straight forward? Anything to look out for?

    Do the universal ones fit ok or do I need an oe part? Only thing that concerns me with an oe part is that I would need to separate cv and shaft whereas the universal ones can be stretched over the joint I believe?

    Thanks for any advice!

  2. I would get a Oem one mate, all the others are slightly bigger and rub on the hub housing. Mine lasted about a month before it had a hole in.
     
  3. Ah ok, cheers mate. Did you have to separate the cv joint itself from the shaft to fit it?
