    Needing to change my CV Axles out cause of a torn boot. What all do I need to buy if I'm getting two new built CV axles? Grease? Lube? Other replacement parts I need to buy? Thanks for the help.

    Oil seals where the axles go into the diff. I would use oem Toyota seals and rebuilt oem Toyota axles.

    Just change the boot for under $20. Just make sure you have some of those c clip pliers that open up when used. and ALOT of shop rags

    If you insist on changing cv you wound need nothing more than a cotter pin or locktite for the lbj bolts. Possible you lose a little gear oil while doing aswell

    Do I need to change both at the same time or just 1 that's damaged? Also do I need to get a wheel alignment afterwards for a CV axle replacement?

    Won't need a alignment and don't have to change both at the same time. You have a 50 50 chance on the seals leaking if you don't replace them. I didn't change seals when I re booted my axles and one ended up leaking so had to pull one side all apart again. Still running original seal on the other side and no leaks.
