Finally, someone doing the sensible thing and replacing both boots at the same time whilst the thing is out. Well done on the preventative maintenance.
Alright guys, top job but I do have one thing for you. The inner tripod CV joint needs a semi liquid grease like the texture of what came out of it. Using the graphite grease that comes with these boot kits kills the needle bearings in the tripod leading to premature failure.

🙏 much appreciate it.
this doesn't look as bad i was told...supposedly there were small parts easy to lose and more than likely have to buy a new one any way 0_0
It is dead straight forward with minimal tools. It takes longer to get them in and out than to swap the boots.

@MoldMinis appreciate the information. Hopefully, people see this and take advantage of it! Cheers
