FAQs
Does this kit come with the grease required for the CV joint?

What is the warranty on this product?
The Bailcast Duraboot DBC200 is backed by a two-year quality guarantee against manufacturing defects.
Do I need a special tool to install this?
While it can be installed with a manual cone, using a pneumatic tool like the Duragun will significantly speed up the process.

Troubleshooting
Boot appears too tight to stretch over the joint
Ensure you are using a properly lubricated cone or the recommended pneumatic expansion tool.
Grease leaking from the clamped end
Verify that the stainless steel ear clamps were tightened correctly using an appropriate ear-clamp crimping tool.
Boot rubbing against suspension components
Re-check the length measurements; if the boot is too long for the specific joint assembly, it may need to be adjusted or swapped for the correct sizing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure the driveshaft is clean and free of old grease and rust. Check your vehicle's specific measurements against the DBC200 specifications (19-27mm shaft, 71-95mm joint, 90-112mm length) to avoid improper fitment. To install, apply the provided grease to the joint area thoroughly. If using the cone method, lubricate the cone and carefully pull the boot over it onto the driveshaft. Once in position, tighten the stainless steel ear clamps using an ear-clamp tool to ensure a permanent seal. Routine inspection of the boot for surface cracks or clamp loosening during regular oil changes is recommended to maintain a two-year service life.
