CV Boot Busted

My inner passenger CV boot is busted. None of the local parts places carry this item. Anyone replaced one? How hard is it? Cost? What would it cost for ford dealership to replace? Thanks in advance for the help.

The price of the OEM boot is around $130 each. And the entire OEM CV is around $300. Aftermarket CV's are extremely cheap, but you get what you pay for. Most of them use a Tripod style inner joint......which aren't compatible with leveling kits.

Spicer supposedly makes the best replacement boots. But I can't find anyone who sells them!!
