Not wanting to gamble, I just went ahead and ordered the oe boots for the car....however I may have it a small snag. Boots will arrive tomorrow, but while driving today I heard the tick tick tick of the axle. I only drove about 3 miles and got the car home and up on jack stands. Boot is definitely ripped, but there is still some grease inside. I grabbed a large syringe and put in about 40 grams of grease and went for a test drive and the noise is gone. With that being said, is it ok to proceed with changing out the boots tomorrow or do I now need a new axle? Thanks.
