When I got my Cardone CV Axles the Stock Boots seem rather dry to the touch; they do not seem too elastic.

The fact that the Flexx Boots are thin and clearly extremely elastic may mean that they are less apt to crack.

If the Silicon Version I spoke of can be stretched over the Axle without ripping I bet they would outlast other major parts the on the Car.

I have been hoping that some one who has had the Flexx Boots on for some long years and mileage would comment.
