- Protects CV joints from moisture and debris
- Keeps CV joints lubricated
- Needs to be replaced when cracked or punctured
Your Nissan CV (constant velocity) joints transmit power from the transmission to the wheels. Typically found at either end of your driveshafts, they accommodate your suspension system's movement and provide the wheels with the torque required to turn.
Each CV joint is protected by a boot. CV boots help prevent debris from getting into the joints while also making sure the joints are lubricated. When one of your CV joints becomes broken or worn, you will need to replace it with a Nissan CV Joint Boot Kit. A broken CV boot can expose your CV joint to external elements and cause premature joint failure.
CV joints are meant to last a while, but they face a lot of wear and tear from road debris. Some of the most common causes of CV boot damage are severe friction, heat, and punctures. If a CV boot is torn or cracked, you might observe grease on the wheels or slight vibrations while driving. Unfortunately, CV boot damage might not be noticeable until it's already impacted the CV joints. Try to look at your boots once a year or more often if you drive on tough terrain or go off-roading.
Replacing your CV boot with a CV Joint Boot Kit the moment you recognize an issue can help you save on repairs down the road. A replacement Nissan CV Joint Boot Kit has everything you need to help ensure your CV joints remain protected, including the clamp, CV boot, and grease. With the proper tools and knowledge, you can replace a CV boot at home. You can also buy a Nissan CV Joint Boot Kit online bring it and your vehicle to the nearest service center, and have a trained technician install it.
