Okay so yesterday I was under my car trying to fix and exhaust leak, That got fixed so I figured while I'm under there I should see if anything else needs fixing or adjustment. I noticed grease in both my front rims (I have steelies on So I can see from the outside), Both my outer CV boots were torn.
Today i went out and got the boots and since I've never done anything like this before I was hoping I could get some insight on what to do. Is there any special way to slide out the CV axles? I know some are held in with clips and what not. And I just want to make sure I have all the right tools before I go ahead and start taking things apart. Thanks in advance.

i am interested too, i was told by the dealership that my cv boots were leaking.
how much would it cost to just replace the axle instead of just only the CV boots?


also, would anyone know why my car starts to vibrate from 60-75 mph, but stops vibrating around 80 mph?
(car shakes while accelerating in between 60 up until 75 mph)
