Your right , I did the quick boot without removing anything. Just jacked the right side up seeing plenty of room to remove the old torn boot. Cleaned the cv joint up really well, repacked it , then used tape to protect the back side to keep grease out of the seam for gluing. Then I Glued the near side, then installed the new clamps.....
To my surprise that was it....
a Very simple repair compared to what I expected compared to the cars I've done these before.
This was not experienced by me before on all the cars I have replaced an axle on, before the repair I had a slight pull to the right. But now it goes straight as an arrow,
40+ years of doing similar to pretty much to all in the porsche/audi/vw cars from the 70s to my most recent cars I''ve owned I never had I had a cv pull on one side due what appears to be a unlubricated outer cv joint...?...
...Plenty of one's that looked like this one without any pull, it wasn't clicking on turns under power either....????...?..
