Inner Drive Shaft O/S/F Boot Split

[Dan29]

Had an advisory on my recent service to say that my O/S/F inner drive shaft boot was split.

Is this something I need to get a garage to look at and replace? If so any ideas of the price, or is it something I could have a go at repairing?

Cheers

Dan

have you checked it yourself just to make sure the clip hasn't come off?

 

[Dan29]

Think I'll have a look this weekend to see as I'm changing the pads, do I just re-pack it with grease and jubilee clip it?

 

[MartinR]

yep providing it isn't full of grit and crap!

iirc Molybdenum Disulfide Lithium Based grease is the stuff needed and a new clip.

don't over fill the boot either.

Is that grease the sort of stuff you can pick up from halfords do you know?

Cheers for the help.

 

[MartinR]

yep
