I'm redoing my axles and CV joints. I have new outer boots from JimK. However my axles have the Blue Super Boots on the outer joints and they appear to be virtually new.

What are the thoughts on reusing the Super Boots vs replacing them with the latest issue replacements?

Steve,

Reuse them! I was fortunate enough to find a used pair down at the COOP and installed them on Double Trouble four years ago they are
bullet proof!!!

Regards,
Rob M.

I think you would be best to put your new ones on and send the blue ones to me! (Big grin)

Sorry Les - for some reason they seem to be back on the axles.

Getting closer to getting Smurffe on the road. It's now a race between me and the salt trucks.

Hey I figure it is a race between myself, Les Burt and Rob Mueller's Blue Streak. I don't wanna beat them too badly. (GRIN)

Steve i think you'll be on the road before me.

I moved the body of my coach this week end, even though there is still no frame under it! So I'm make some progress. :)
