The boots are widely available. Lobro still makes them I believe.
Make sure you get the right washers and stick them on the right way. As far as rebuilding....as far as I know.... once a bearing is gone....it is gone. I used new Type I's. Chris Foley at Tangerine machines recesses in them for the gaskets. Good luck. |

if you can find an old original set of 2 piece boots. (picture) ones that the flange seperates from the boot, than i recommend rockford driveline boots. they are way thicker and made of better rubber than the new german or brazilian boots. i got sick of replacing boots every 5k miles. the rockfords are well over 10k now and feel brand new.
