Both of the outer cv boots on my 97 850 are torn. When checking the price the boot cost $36 each with the half axle costing $82.00 (rebuilt)including both boots. So how hard is it to replace the outer boot? Is it worth drivng it until the "clicking" starts then replace both half axles. Since I am asking questions, this car ('97 850 GLT) burns alot of oil. Compression is good, any ideas? Thanks for the inf0 in advance
