Subject:      Re: [T2] Clicking CVs

I agree with George on the Lobro boots...Mine look 10 years old after 6 months on the van..have began to crack in all the little folds.....supplier will replace them for me for free, but I will still have to spend a day dropping the CV's to replace them......

I will give the rockford's a try next time.
