These boots – they're usually rubber or a tough polymer – basically cover the CV joints. CV joints are what allow your wheels to turn and go up and down with the suspension, and also transfer power from the transmission to the wheels. The boot keeps the grease inside the joint, and keeps dirt, water, and road grime out. The kit usually comes with the boot itself, a clamp to secure it, and grease – everything you need to do the job. Think of it like this: the CV joint is a really important, intricate piece of machinery. It needs to be constantly lubricated to work smoothly and last. The boot acts like a shield, protecting that lubrication and the joint itself from the elements. It's part of the drivetrain, so it directly impacts how power gets to your wheels. Without a good boot, everything suffers. If the boot tears or cracks, grease starts flinging out and dirt gets in. Once that happens, the joint starts wearing down fast. You’ll notice if it's really bad because you'll probably hear clicking sounds when you turn, especially at lower speeds. But even before that, a damaged boot is letting in contaminants that are grinding away at the joint’s internal parts. Ignoring it will eventually lead to a failed CV joint, which is a much bigger, more expensive repair. It’s definitely something you want to address as soon as you see a tear or leak. You can find CV boot kits at places like Fixparts Online, and doing this repair yourself can save you a good bit of money compared to replacing the whole axle.
