Exclamation 2008 trv 500

Hi I have this vehicle and it runs great, today i noticed a knocked as I rocked the quad from side to side. I grabbed each half axle the the front left can move in and out but not up and down. the rest are solid no movement in any direction. Any suggestions, if its the axle what do you recommend I replace it with thanks for your time...its been awhile since I've been on this forum. I haven't had any issues with the machine except there was a recall on the front trans...I wonder if they forgot to tighten up something?

Dunno about c clip it's normal for a little in and out movement.
you can get the boot clamps at any auto parts or motorsport shop. Not a item that is brand specific. Make sure you have the tool for them. I usually have 6 or so clamps for spares as I can never find them when needed. I also carry good zip ties for a trail repair... have a zip tie that's 3 years old now I keep forgetting yo swap it out

I usually Google for what I'm looking for and go after the best price and reputable site. Chaparral is good and as always Amazon.
