    Anyone know of Bricks and Mortar stores that carry the 'universal' CV boot covers that you don't have to remove the axles to install? I hand greased the right front cv axle before I left and it seems to be quiet. I'd still like to put a boot full of grease on it, as those mountains seem like they could burn a greaseless axle joint out in a few miles:eek:

    Thanks I'll have to find one around here that has them, the first place did not have any in stock and tried to sell me a new axle! I figure anything to help keep the joint greased during the Winter is better than nothing there! Hopefully the Lil Beast does'nt become a money pit...
