Looks like the packing grease to me ...and no its not normal ...mine are dry

You just need a clip on that boot man. Use a zip tie in a pinch.

it look like you missing the ring that goes over it. you can probably buy the ring for it.

Try another cv-boot clamp or plan on a new axel sometime soon

Or even a worm drive clamp... careful getting under your car with just that scissor jack under it. I've accidentally tipped a few of my cars off those before.

For the time being i put a clamp on the boot but i dont know how much help it is.. I hear clicking noises when i come to a stop, its on its way out. Just realized that website only sells up to 95 sohc axles.. does that matter? (i dont have abs)

you need a clamp and some jack stands

I would never trust my noggin to one of those scissor type jacks... are your back wheels even chocked???

[ETsk8KID]

i used the scissor jack to take a picture i would never use it to get under my car

[adrianohezz]

yes you would be better off getting some new cv axles you can do a good amont of damage to your tranny if you keep driving it like that

[Rhonda14]

need to clamp it even then dont know how long it will last

[oldschooljdm]

axle boots are over rated. dont need them in all honesty

lol jk, replace it or zip tie it til u can get a new one

[ETsk8KID]

When i clamped it down it was still loose (probably because of that grease) even when i tightened it as much as possible.. Im already getting new axles and tranny from transex (AKA mista bones) so hopefully it wont die yet.. keep your fingers crossed lol
