Subject:      What to do with torn CV boot
Content-type: text/plain

Hello all,

I have an '86 Vanagon with a torn CV joint boot --the outer. I've never
worked on CV joints before and need some advice:

How do I tell if the CV joint is any good, or should I just replace the
boot?

With 171k miles on the odometer what is the likelihood that these CV joints
will last any longer? I assume they are the originals.

Thank you,

Jon Glommen
