Should I just install new CV axle boots in my 2008 Lexus GX470?

So Raxles does not make cv Axles for my vehicle. From what I have been seeing, it is either oem, or a gamble at some chinese junk? I like the thought of a lifetime warranty, but I don't want to be replacing them all the time.

Although my boots are torn and the grease is likely all gone, I didn't really notice any issues, except maybe a little vibration in the steering wheel for a moment.

Would my best bet be to just reboot the axles? How can I tell if these axles are OEM?

I will get OEM if need be, but I don't want to spend money needlessly.

Thanks so much!


Any noises from the CV axles?

Inspect the axles and make sure there is no sand in them. Based on what you described, odds are that replacing just thhe boots can not help in the lung run. If you ended up just changing the boots, get OEM.
