The AUSubaru.com.au Forums

I think this was discussed years ago somewhere on the forum but I cant find it now.
For those instances where a CV boot is stuffed and you know it needs replacing but for whatever reason (usually time) you cant do the job right now but also know if you dont do something you will be replacing more than a CV boot soon, eg (a CV) does anyone know of a reliable split CV boot that can be quickly installed till time etc can be found to pull the CV's and drive shaft out.
I seem to recall from somewhere rally drivers used something but I cant find the info I thought I had stored somewhere.

there is this style on ebay it may help

I see a different kit all the time cheaper and the boot is made of blue rubber, but of course when looking for one...

theres some which are bolt together (vw comes to mind)

depending how long your going to leave it ive seen glad wrap, glad bags and cereal packets used =P

This is the stuff. Thanks for the info.
I just want something to get by with and I have no intention of being slack I just want to avoild (as per the ebay item) full CV replacement,
I see on the L series at least the drivers side inner is looking a bit ordinary.

not a problem this is the one I was thinking of. I was searching for something else and it showed up in the search
