Ok i took my car into the shop today and got one of my mechanic buddies to take a look at it. The driver's side CV Boot is cracked and leaking grease and the upper ball joint is screwed. So i hafta replace both. i am getting prices from more places tomorrow on my lunch. i am just curious as to how hard it is to install a CV Boot Kit and a upper ball joint? Would i be able to do this at home or at the shop? And also, how do i know if i need a new CV Joint AND Boot kit or JUST a CV Boot Kit??? tHX
