    Default CV Boots on halfshafts

    Where can I purchase OEM-type CV boots from and is there a link on how to rebuild cv joints on the halfshafts?

    I dont want to rebuild them. just pack them up with new grease and replace the old boot.

    I picked up rebuilt halfshafts here in the states from Rockauto for $50 each (the deposit was MORE than the cost) - I could not buy the darn boots and justify working on them myself for that price...

    shipping is a killer, already have a spare set of halfshafts so I want to regrease them myself.
