cv boot replacement

My drivers side cv boot is busted and leaking. Is there another alternative to having to replace the entire axle?

From the dealer I think they are 30.00. I'm sure other places might have them also.

About $30 for one boot kit from Sparks or Toyota of Dallas (TRDparts4u). I've done two now and know I ordered from one of those dealers...just don't remember which one.

The price you play for paying I suppose. It is cheaper than an new axle after all.



I've got two spares in my garage, so if a boot ever does go on me, I can swap it and rebuild the busted one with out keeping the truck out of commission.
