So I have a set of stock LBJs sitting in a box, and a tear in one of my CV boots.
I am nervous about replacing the LBJs, but the CVs for some reason have me all sketched out. Despite reading what I think are all the threads I just don't feel comfortable with how the process will work in my head. Most of them are about replacing CVs, not boots, and I just read that I might need diff oil, which is kind of what sent me over the edge. I also can't seem to find the part number for the 3rd gen boot kit (nor if I need two to do both sides or if one kit covers both).
Anyway, wondering if someone would be interested in lending a helping hand. My garage is fit out decently (ramps, jack, stands, creeper, full set of sockets including 35mm plus various adapters and breaker bars) but I only have a little pancake compressor, so no real air tools.
Not sure if I can get the boots for this weekend, but I don't think this would take all that long so it shouldn't matter if I have my kids or not (meaning I could do it any weekend, the sooner the better). Willing to supply Pie Pizza (or whatever folks like) and Frosty Beverage of choice.
