    Has anyone tried upgraded CV boots such as these?

    Both of my boots ripped recently (lifted almost to the upper limit of the Icon coilovers) after only about 15k miles. I don't want to be replacing boots every 15k and I'm definitely not going to do a diff drop. Tougher boots seems like an easy fix.

    May be worth a try but I imagine youd have to dismantle the cv axels to get the new boots on.

    Im not talking about removing the axels from the truck. to replace cv axel boots, yes first you have to remove it from the vehicle and then break the axle down into at least 2 parts so you can slide the new boots on. I am talking about this. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-S-ofMoWsr0
