CV Boot Replacement?

[liftednali]

Hey I have an 2000 OBS Denali, my outer axle boot started leaking oil so im going to be replacing it, do i have to take the axle off in order to replace it? If so I think i will replace the axle too.

Thanks

Yes you gotta pop the axle out of the hub. I did mine in my sol and put new grease in and put it back together. No need to replace a cv axle unless it looks bent or cracked or even if the bearings are bad
