It takes ALOT more work and time to replace just the boots.
So I always just replace the axle if the boot gets torn/broken.
At Advance Auto Parts its only $70.0 for a new, lifetime warranty axle.
For SOME reason they sell a new one for $10.00 more than a rebuilt one,
and you don't have to turn in your old one.

ps; Watch your fingers when you pry down the lower control arm, the resilience of the rubber bushings trys to swing the lower control arm back up with conciderable force!
