I saw a few listed that were not of good quality- what brand seems to hold up the best?

So is the conscious still Lobro with regards to CV boots these days? How about known site/s that sell quality boots?

Anyone ever try to cross reference one of our CV boots from say a Japanese made vehicle? They have rubber that lasts these days.

Lobro has questionable quality these days, and part of the reason may be long drying-out sits on the shelf. The caps are getting chintzy with cheap cad plating and they don't fit the joints securely, and the rubber is not terribly flexible.

Rockford has been advertised as off-road tough, but I have seen rubber that is so thick that it does not play well with the angles our CVs work at.

Ein (did I see a box spelled Ein? Hippie?) something or other looked OK.

Other input? We can update the "Known Acceptable" sticky.
