4-5 hours? Wait til you've done at least 7 or 8. That time will drop to less than an hour, lol.

Not often you see a busted inner boot with an intact outer!

Agreed! Does your 95 really have a 2 liter turbo engine?

OEM parts are good. I have pretty good luck with the Advanced Auto Axles. It's like $70 with a core. Lifetime warranty too. That way when the boot breaks, take it out and return it for a new one that's free.

Man, youve been going apeshit on that car! Good job. Ill be hitting you up when the time comes for mine to be swapped. I bought the car with a torn boot on a new axle and Im just waiting for it to really start sticking before I swap it.

listen for the popping that is when you know it is getting close. if it starts to grap and pull one way then you need to go ahead and install a new one. yea i just installed a throttle body spacer and am redoing the head liner and trim pices in suede
