    I am about to swap my needle bearing on my truck with the ECGS bushing. Was wondering if I should swap the cv axle while I have it apart. It’s a 2007 with 99k on it. It is currently stock but I am planning on installing a mid travel lift and 285’s in the future. Thanks for the help.

    Boots good? Any leaks? If no, I’d keep the same CV

    Boot is good. No cv leaks. Just the seal at the needle bearing.

    I’m going to agree with the rest.
    Reuse it. Unless you see some kind of unusual wear marks.
    Good to see you be proactive. As the Mid-Travel would probably have you doing this anyways.
