HELP PLEASE! CV Boot tore, 1,000 miles into trip:(

[TBFK]

So I'm a day and a half into my road trip to Los Angeles, over 1,000 miles away from home, and my CV Boot tears on the passenger side. Now my imprezza is pulling to the right. My question is, how long do you think I could drive with it like that??

I tried calling some part stores, but of course they're all closed. Not to mention tomorrow is Sunday.

Any advice? I'm a little tight on cash to:(

Have you tried parts stores today? IIRC my Autozone stocks them for these cars.

I have and I got an axel today, now I just gotta get some tools and do the work.

If the boot is the only thing that tore and the axle is in good shape, you could go quite a while and not have any problems.

I drove from Florida to Houston on an axle that had no boot and had been gone for who knows how long. I clicked going straight under power. I ended up stopping after a little while and smeared some grease in the open axle. She made it to Houston ok.
