I rebuilt these once, ie axle was beyond just a grease and boot repair. Cured me PDQ; what a hassle, esp with getting the one side off the roll pin. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" />

If you think the internals are okay, you can get away with a boot kit plus the snap ring for the axle end (not part of the kit). The ring in the kit is for the tulip joint.

If it's makin' noise, yank that one, take it to NAPA, and save yourself the $90 core return they want. Slap 'er in, keep goin.
