1. Replacement of covers is the only work from the field of repair of the drive shaft, which is recommended to be carried out separately. Worn or damaged shaft or joints require replacement of the entire shaft assembly.
2. Rubber boots are included in the appropriate repair kit along with a special lubricant. The procedure for replacing the cover is a rather complicated job and therefore it is recommended to entrust it to a specialist. It is possible that dirt has entered the joint and this is causing premature wear.
3. Before replacing the boot, you must determine the type of hinge installed. Also remember that the shafts on earlier models are different in some cases from later models.
