I have recently become a victim of the torn front drive shaft boot. In lieu of directly replacing the driveshaft, I think that I cam convert it to a greasable unit. Since it is sealed at the front diff, I was planning to place a zerk fitting there to grease it. That way all the bad grease will travel up towards the boot which was ripped and never get any bad stuff in the greased area.
Has anyone else tried this? If so, what kind of results are you having?
Thanks
