2005 Toyota 4Runner Limited 5.7L

Purchased a CV boot kit for the wifes' 2005 4Runner limited.
(04427-60141 BOOT KIT,FR DRIV)

The kit comes with two different greases apparently one for each boot. Problem is, i don't know which grease goes in what boot.

Maybe someone has the instructions from an OEM manual?

Quality kit, much better than aftermarket

This is a Toyota OEM kit.

from the service manual
Pack the outboard joint assembly and boot with
grease in the boot kit.
Grease capacity:
260 to 270 g (9.2 to 9.5 oz.)

Pack the inboard joint assembly and boot with
grease in the boot kit.
Grease capacity:
231 to 241 g (8.1 to 8.5 oz.)

im guessing the inboard is the one that goes to the differential, the outboard is the one at the wheel hub.

i remember when my boots tear at the wheel hub, the grease is gray.

Rebooted my CV yesterday.

UBZ goes on the outer joint. SLF (yellow) goes on the inner joint.

If you’re lifted, recommend stretching your inner boot.
