Did our video help you? If so, consider buying us a beer: bit.ly/3feE6tJ
In this video, we show you how to remove, reboot and reinstall CV axles. We perform a reboot procedure to fix the OEM CV axles rather than replace them with inferior aftermarket ones. We also show how to do an extended/stretched CV boot modification for those who may have lifted trucks and are experiencing problems with premature ripping of the inner boots. This repair was done on a 2002 Toyota 4runner Limited but the information and technique we use can translate to other trucks and passenger vehicles as well.
If you are not planning to reboot, go to 41:25 to view the removal and reinstallation of the CV axles.
