[QUOTE="The Mav, post: 1045824, member: 20648"] yea, I am biased as the truck I own has a live axle front end. and I haven't touched the boots since i've owned the truck. there are no added wear issues. it's all BS. the constantly turning axles means all sides of the CV joint are being greased all the time. the boot always moving is a good thing. if you leave rubber sitting in one spot for a long period of time, then all of a sudden ask it to move, you run the risk of cracks. in 6 years of owning my truck, and 100k miles under my ownership, I have had zero boot failures. I have had zero hub issues. I have had zero front end issues at all. yes, I am biased towards what I see work. boot issues related to constantly spinning cv shafts is a myth. All other OEM's use the same live axle design. No boot issues. Aftermarket uses live axle setups, no boot issues. I don't know why you insist on thinking that you will instantly have boot issues if your axle is always turning. You wont. No one does. look around at what people are running. hell even on this forum you can find people with the eliminator. No boot issues. No mpg drops. It's a myth. Don't know why you think it's an issue when it clearly is not.[COLOR="Red"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR]Hell, FWD cars have been using a live axle setup forever. They don't have boot issues from constantly spinning axles. and not only are they spinning all the time, they are spinning all the time with power being applied all the time. [/QUOTE]
