jeremy 68 Posted October 20, 2017 Thanks, however are the rings important? I have also bought some new cv boots that come as a kit and require a cv boot tool to tighten the two metal sucuring rings. From looking on eBay they are referred to ear type jointing pliers. Can anyone recommend a good set. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
