Install CV boot with a funnel?

My Sequoia broke a sway bar link, which then stabbed through the outer CV boot causing a big mess and a cv joint that was now exposed to the elements. The sway bar links had been replaced and have a lifetime warranty, but I was on my own for the CV boot. The service manual says to disassemble the inner cv joint to replace the outer boot, but I didn't want to buy a boot or clamps for the joint that was still good, so I used a method that I recently discovered. I'll link below some products that I used.

I hint for the next time you do it, take you a bowl of water put it in the microwave put it on about three minutes two minutes depending on what microwave you’ve got and pull it out and let the boot sit in that warm water and it will soften it up Tremendously and make it so much easier. Do not do like I did the first time and put the boot in the microwave in the water. It burned a hole in it, so but yes, hot water will make it 10 times easier.

Thanks for the instructional. My application is a little different, but similar. I need to replace the boots on my 1953 Dodge driveshaft ball and trunion universal joints. The construction of these old drive shafts makes replacing the boots a task. The OEM style boots are expensive and are quite alot of work to install through the interior of the union cup, I'm hoping these Dorman unifit boots work out as a faster less expensive seal for the jojnt. Watching you do it gives me inspiration. Thanks again!

Thank you for a great film. I didn't know how to use the Cone, now I know, but I see it requires a lot of strength, not sure if I can do it. I thought to buy that special spreading power tool with opening jaws, but people complain that it tears the boots, kind of works only on certain type of boots, and how to know which boot will be torn, unclear. I don't have that type of problem w/boots, but good to learn how all that works. Thank you again.

Yeah these actually work. Not fun in cold weather though! that rubber refuses to expand enough, I know it's against the instructions (or it was in mine) but dumping the rubber boot in some very hot water first really helps, dry it off quickly and use lots of grease on the cone. My cone is specifically for this, the plastic is heavier etc and the end isn't open like a funnel but I can see how any long funnel would work. A tip: probably easier to do with the axle installed in the car if you can separate the ball joint and swing the suspension out of the way, at least then you're pushing against something.

Tried this with my Volvo xc70 outer cv boots and even though I used the cone and lubricated iron really well the replacement boots just wouldn't go over. Unfortunately I have rheumatoid arthritis that made it impossible to install. So I went with the expensive route and did buy the pneumatic axel boot installation tool for $75 from Amazon, and an air tank air compressor from Harbor Freight tools, $150, and yes it was money well spent. I didn't have to struggle with my severe arthritis. So if any of you have severe arthritis issues I highly recommend spending the money purchasing the tool that you mentioned at the beginning, that CV boot expansion installation tool made it possible for me to complete the job. Thanks to your video I went and bought it after countless failures with the cone.

From what I've read about this method, there are different types of material the boots are made of. Sounds like you had the PVC kind. The PVC type aren't stretchy enough to do this with. I believe the neoprene type are what you need. Getting ready to fond out myself in a few min. My 2009 caliber busted a boot and got a universal replacement boot from oreillys . It has the boot, grease and bands for $19.99 + tax. Cheaper than $89 for a rebuild axle.

You force the boot over the cone. The elasticity of the boot, size of cv joint, etc will play a factor at how quickly it goes for whatever you’re working on. No point in watching me struggle for 10-15 minutes.

Looks like this repair process was a struggle. I agree with the previous comments, it would have been easier to remove the joint. The boot expander is expensive. Shops have that tool and pays for itself. Not worth buying for weekend tree mechanics.

There was still the original grease in the joint. I didn’t clean it completely out, just wiped the excess off the outside. The other grease will work it’s way in. If it’s a brand new sparkly fresh joint, you should definitely pack some grease into the joint.

The one I bought is very stiff compared to this. I tried to turn inside out and it's not going to happen. I've seen videos of being able to tap off the CV end with a hammer but I'm not having any luck so I might try the split boot you glue together instead.

Really you can just tap that thing off of there the CV axle it really just taps off of there either end you have to take the other boot off if you work from the other end but I think that it might have even been easier to stretch that boot over that tone by leaving it on the car yeah stretching the boot over the cone that's not you just got to grab it with the shop towel or something and then just push it real quick and hard and don't stop once you move it you got to figure out a way to get your voice bolted down to something cuz that bicycle just slides around on the floors that's not going to work for you you got to get your your voice monitor to the table somewhere

It’d be a huge struggle trying to work around the steering knuckle/suspension. Not saying it can’t be done, but it’ll probably take much longer. However, if you can rent/borrow the pneumatic tool that is made to stretch these boots, then it may go super quick for you.

There is an easier way. Since the 8:25 outer boot is bad, it also advisable to replace inner boot and you dont have to remove the drive shaft from tranny which requires the fluid to be drained. You can separate the inner joint by removing the boot and leaving the end in the tranny. Then the inner joint has a snap ring to release the bearings. Now you dont have to stretch the outer boot over the outer bearing. Outer boot gets installed from inner side of shaft without any stretching....

The least bit of dirt left in the grease in the CV joint will be making you revisit this project very soon. It needs to be hermetically cleaned before re-greasing and reassembly. I'm sure you cleaned it well, but just sayin'

Debatable. How much is your time worth? Plus the cone, the grease, the kit, the tools (if you don't have them) aren't free. That job is $200 parts and labor at a local shop. He spent about $40 on materials. And between taking the tire off, moving the hub assembly, doing the job and putting everything back together, possibly two hours. An amateur might take 3-4. Again. How much is your time worth?

With that many miles on the car, I would just replace the entire axle/CV assembly. They are not that expensive. The old shaft is at its life expectancy. When it starts clicking and binding you will be doing the same job all over again.
@DustinRogersinMO
@DustinRogersinMO 7 месяцев назад
Well, it’s been 2 years and still no clicking from the axle. And the replacement boot was $17. A replacement axle from the auto parts store is $135+. Roughly the same amount of work to swap the axle or change the boot. Sure you can get a no-name axle from eBay or Amazon for ~$60, but you may be swapping that axle out in 2 years when it fails and there’s no warranty.

For those curious, this is a CV joint boot installation tool, specifically it looks like the one made by Moose. The rubber goes over a vehicle’s CV (constant velocity) joints, which connect the drive shaft to the CV axle (inner CV joint) & the CV axle to the wheel (outer CV joint) - the rubber prevents dirt/moisture from getting into said joints while driving the vehicle.
