RE: Ball-Trunion to UJoint

["Gary H." <spigot2039@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another example of "too bad" that Autohobbydigest went offline. No update on that site I've heard about or contact info for the guy who ran it. 

For an interim repair, try a split CV boot available at parts stores. In my experience these split boots are just that, interim, even if you follow the directions to the letter. They tend to come apart. Maybe reinforce the seal on that split boot somehow; maybe with silicone and cable zip ties?  

By the way, our Aussie friends sell a B&T boot but I don't know if it is the small or large version.
