Default CV boot repair

The CV joint has been clicking all the time, and I was wondering if this could be the solution? POLARIS Sportsman 335 400 500 Inner CV Joint Kit 99-07 : eBay Motors (item 160417737568 end time Apr-25-10 18:43:04 PDT)

Here are some pics of the problem: CV boot repair-cv.boot.jpg

P.S. The ATV is a Polaris 2002 Sportsman 400. Thanks!

Yeah CV joints tend to click when they get bad and with a torn boot their time is limited. (Although yours doesn't look like it has been torn too long - or you have been greasing it)

You could pull it all apart and just do the inner CV joint but (IMO) the best thing to do would be a complete new shaft assemby because it is a 8 year old machine. When you look at the cost of the shaft assy it makes sense. All new everything and pre-assembled.

Not saying you should get this exact shaft. Their are alot of them out there.

If you look again on Ebay for cvman's store, he is selling the COMPLETE axle, ready to run, for $60.00. I just got one for my 01 500HO.
