Over the week i was trying to tighten the cv axle on My 99 toyota sienna ring on the driver side when accidentally i pierced the boot. The bott started oozing grease. Do you recommend replacing the CV or the whole axle? Can you provide the instruction how to do it.?

Thannks and regards

You can just get the boot replaced, this will require some special tools, get a quote from a mechanic to do this, it should only take about 1/2 Hr to do on a hoist.
