    Alright mechs. Do I need to be concerned? Took her off road. Stretched her suspension out finally. First real off-road adventure. Everything is tight and the tubes connecting are intact. 20170416_140557.jpg20170416_140606.jpg 20170416_140555.jpg

    You have a torn boot slinging grease.

    It needs to be fixed.

    CV Axle is caput. You'll want to replace that. Go to cvjreman.com and hit those guys up. Great parts.

    So far so good. No sign of leaking grease or movement of the clamp. I'm going to consider this a temp fix still. Toyota will repair the faulty clamp that snapped off.
