Cv joints on jeep
Found CV joint boot on the front drive or propeller shift completely gone on the transfer case end. Was told by dealer parts person when I inquired that on our Jeep Liberty the front drive shaft or propeller shaft CV Joint/Boot was not serviceable and that you had to buy the whole shaft assembly and replace it at well over $300.
NOT True!
Found and ordered the replacement boot from «Driveshaft Parts» part No. ME807BK. Removed the shaft and upon dis-assembly discovered the CV Joint cage was broken. Then ordered the whole CV Joint/Boot kit from Detroit Axle Part No. 89234hf23. Very good parts kit, came with Neoprene Boot, CV joint, end cap, new bolts, washers, boot clamp, and 3% moly grease.
Notes of interest:
You have to pry open the original metal boot flange and metal end seal flange to get them off and be able to access the E-clip to remove the CV joint. I actually cut part of it open using a air driven wizz wheel. If the CV Joint is not broken, it would be a simple remove, clean and repack the joint and replace the inside boot along with the end seal cap. Once the new parts are installed on the shaft, you must use some 8mm x 1.25 nuts to clamp everything back together and then using a small hammer, re-bend the new boot and end cap flanges into the groves on the CV joint in order to reseal everything. I did use some silicone sealer on the inner flange surfaces to fill any gaps and ensure a good tight grease seal. I also used some locktite on the CV Joint bolts to ensure they stay put when I re installed the shaft.

Thanks!! And perfect timing for me to read. Recently picked up a drive line vibration and while changing oil yesterday inspected front drive shaft and saw the «sling line» from the TC end of drive shaft. Looks like I will be following you lead on this fix!!
Update- bought this same part from deteriorate and installed just as indicated. It didn’t come with instructions so bing this post was great. I used rtv to make a good seal on the flange them ball pinged it for a tight seal.
Nice write up and tech advice.

I have the shaft out right now and can’t get the flanges loose (hammer/chisel/PB Blaster, etc.). Has anyone been able to get these apart without cutting them open? I can get the hack saw out, but was trying to do it non-destructively.

I stuck a small screwdriver in one of the bolt holes and pried it up, then the next hole, then the next hole, then the next hole. then around again.
Finally popped the sucker off.
EDIT: you do mean just the top cover, right?

Dan, you got to drive a medium sized screwdriver or small punch under the outer flange with a hammer and pry it open enough to allow separation from the CV joint. The new kit come with a new CV joint and boot/flanges so if you destroy the old one it is not a big deal. You can see in my original pictures, I actually cut away part of the old flange to order to get it off so I could get to the E clip lock on the end of drive shaft.
Let me know if you need any further help!

Anybody have a link for the parts. I can’t find it on Detroit axle or rock auto, where I thought I saw it a few months back
