If the CV joints are worn, indicating the need for an overhaul due to torn boots, explore all options before starting the job. Complete rebuilt CV boots are available on an exchange basis. If you choose to rebuild a CV joint, check the cost and availability of parts before disassembly. Some auto parts stores offer "split" type replacement boots, which can be installed without removing the CV joint. However, it's recommended to remove the CV joint and clean it to ensure it's free from contaminants.
