I'm not going to say I would never do anything like that :wink: but I don't think I'd tell too many folks about it! I sure wouldn't post pictures and instructions on the internet and ADMIT that I teach auto mechanics! :shock: That's just . . . just . . . :? There isn't even a word to describe it! :lol:

But I kind'a wonder if a piece of radiator hose would work for a CV Boot? :lol:

Wait a second, you mean the best boot for a tie rod isn't a new boot with a new tie rod attached to it? Crap, I've been doing it wrong for years.

I would think a double fold Russian condom would be better. At least it would hold more grease. What do you think ? :lol: :lol:
