Sometimes yes. I had one on my 09 Tocuma leak grease was under warranty. The dealer fixed it. 2 months later the boot leaked again. Toyota replaced it the axle. Never leaked again.

I’d just use the worm drive clamps linked above. I bought one off eBay when. I boot started leaking after my lift. Removed the OEM clamp and put on the worm drive hose clamp, hasn’t leaked since.

I wasnt sure if a new clamp would work well enough. But I have my answer, thank you!
