mtsmiths Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Are split repair CV boots available for late models, '06 Outback PAX side boot is torn. Local Stealership wants over $300.00 to repair boot!I live in condo so can't get away with pulling a wheel to replace an OEM boot, but I CAN get away with cutting the old one off, and slipping on a split boot. CV isn't making any noise, so should be able to get away with simple boot repair. Edited July 24, 2013 by mtsmiths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I would think the boot dimensions would be similar to older models. Perhaps a range of cross-referencing would yield the same part. I have no experience with ordering split boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Decades ago I tried one to repair an outer CVJ on a '78 Honda. it didn't last 3 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) EDIT - you already have a post for this, I think it's advised to stick to one post per question. Edited July 24, 2013 by grossgary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtsmiths Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) M'kay, grossgary, Only double posted in case a vendor had a product available, rather than hitting open market. Send me a message re; your repair offer ... we allus got room and we're directly on the ocean, including a good snorkel beach and surfing break ... we can do a deal? Car isn't quite to 105,000 but close enough to go ahead and do T-belt, and maybe just boot/axle all at teh same time. I can probably find a carport to woek under, and got all the tools, except any specialty tools needed, and no timing light.
