Sorry if this is a dumb question.
I'm addressing a leaking front axle seal at the differential as well as a torn outer cv boot on my brothers 470. I'm really familiar with the solid axle on the 60 and 80 series, only messed with half axles on my camry.
From what I've seen online it looks like people are just replacing their axle when the boot tears, that seems a little excessive to me and I was under the impression the boot was replaceable. Is it? If so, any reason not to replace it rather than get a whole new axle?
TIA
