Re: Axle boot broke and got grease on inside of wheel (CRXBart)
noticed it only while doing an oil change
never replaced an axle before
this looks like my guide https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1135275
for the part, im guessing oem is the best?

Buy some lifetime warrenty units at a parts store. This won't be the last time you have axle problems. Whenever they start to feel shitty or leak grease replace again.
