How to use a CV Boot Band/Clamp Tool 

This is a good idea, it will really mesh the metal, just dont hit so hard as to break it lol

grease will leak out if it is not tight enough so you'll find out

Absolutely not. It will not last if it works at all. Why wouldn't you just buy a proper hose clamp? They're so cheap and readily available at any auto parts store.

That is exactly what I assumed because they are not wide enough and that rubber hoses will crush over time and come loose. standard hose clamps are unsightly in my view and tend to rust somewhat due to low grade stainless steel. Just wanted to query and see if others have used them in this way. Constant tension clamps are still the best option in my view because if the hose squashes they will still maintain tension.@@JacopoSkydweller

​@@xs11cruiserthey use the spring clips for a reason, its because they expand and contract using these or jubilee clips don't let them flex and still keep tension, I've seen it happen when they have caused pipe connectors to crack

There both just as good in my opinion

Still a great video on how to use the tool.

Note that it was the inboard side and he flipped the axle around so he did it the way he said he was.

He said if you are OCD you can do the rotational way but it’s not necessary!!!!

What kind of hack leaves the axle on the car?
