Halfshafts, Rear Wheel

Note: Install new CV joints only if disassembly and inspection reveals unusual wear.

Note:
- While inspecting the boots, watch for indentations ("dimples") in the boot convolutions. Indentations must be removed.
- Inspect the boots for evidence of cracks, tears, or splits.
- Inspect the underbody for any indication of grease splatter near the boots outboard and inboard locations. This is an indication of boot/clamp damage.
