Any of you guys got the driveshaft boot part number from GKN? I can't remember if its the Si 10 or Si 12 for the outboard boot. I noticed these things come in standard and aero version(which is ours). The standard boot is the accordian version. I may go for that one instead. I don't think there's too much aero involved.
Thanks!

A little searching around the net and I found a really nice replacement boot for these outer
CV joints. I thought I would post the part number as a reference. I got these from Oreilly's but NAPA also have the same ones. Part #2401 by Precision U Joint. Only cost $8.00 U.S.! These are 100mm diameter CV joints(common on Ford, BMW, VW Type 2 Vanagon, etc...). A previous post on this subject gave me a part number 251598201 through Napa. The inner CV joints are of course larger at 108mm (popular on Porsches).

Cheers!
