New CV Boot after lift, leaking again.

I recently put a Daystar 2.5"/1.5" on my 4R, and the driver's side CV boot "somehow" was torn, so I just had it replaced last week. I've driven about 100 miles, and just looked under the car, and it appears that a fair amount of grease is leaking from the outer CV boot where it is clamped around the axle. I know there are alot of CV boot issues with lifts, and that this should probably be under the problems thread, but I wanted to see if anyone knew if it was common or not for newly replaced CV boots to leak out some excess grease or anything like that. I'm going to call the dealer as well to see about the warranty on their repair.

Talked to them earlier, they said to bring it in on Thursday and they would take care of it, as it was their repair that isn't holding up. They are aware I have a lift on it, just gonna hope that they don't change their minds when I take it in.
 
Mine leaked too after OME lift
Lucky my cv boot wasnt torn, so I asked a local shop to put a new grease in there and just replace the clamp. I just did it today, hope everything will turn out just fine, will see in a few days time
