theksmith 3,667 Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) finally replaced the ripped boot on my rear factory driveshaft. part #68400289AA is the boot, 2 metal bands, and a little packet of grease. also, a few weeks ago: random butt shot: Edited April 9, 2020 by theksmith 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgaz 517 Posted April 9, 2020 Did you already have the crimping pliers for the band clamps on the new boot? If you bought them online do you have one of your famous links? My pliers seem to be MIA since I retired. I keep thinking about replacing them before I need them and have to use a “field expediency method”. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
