I have my left side boot perforated and need to replace it, Any help on trusted sources and/or comments about the process will be greatly appreciated. Best Regards. Raul

If you can find a rebuilt axle you'll be ahead cost and time wise. You have to take the steering knuckle loose to do the driver side which is often no fun.

There are two-piece replacement CV boots available to make the repair without pulling the axle. Those have to be glued together after installing them. I never trusted those things.

The advantage to a RB axle is that the CV joint has been inspected, cleaned and lubed- which you'd have to do if you elected to replace the boot yourself. You'd also need the boot clamp tool to install it.

If you decide to make the repair yourself the procedure is in the Toronado section of the shop book.
