Golf 4 inner CV boot replacement.

So while we were replacing the worn anti roll bar bushes we noticed the left hand inner CV boot was looking a bit rough.
Here's how we replaced it.

Good video! I have discovered the inner gator on my 1.8t gti torn the other day and I must do this job. Great tip to put the clamp between the bolt holes in the first place.

Thanks, good luck sorting it out 🤞.

Thanks Fred 👍

It might be wanting too much but i will try replace it without take it off the car. But same time i am thinking might actually be a lot more hard if not off the car.

[@LarcsWorkshop]

Good luck 🤞.
