So im thinking of buying this teg...


Just wondering what you guys think, needs a clutch and CV boot.... not worried about the clutch, but how hard is it to replace the cv boot

 

the cv boot is easier to replace then the clutch if you didnt know

 

i say get it. for that price its a steal.

 

500 is a steal

 

The B16 and trans alone are worth 500! the body/shell in this case should be trashed, looks a lil rough, and im betting the suspension and steering are gonna need work too. Find a civic coup or hatch and drop that drivetrain in. IMO

 

Clutch if you do it your self + 1, maybe 6-8 hrs if your both good. other than that, CV boot is what, 1 hr 2 tops? Never did a CV boot before, but I suppose it wouldn't be that hard. Tell you what for the price of the car, if you decide to buy it, change out the water pump, timing belt, other drive belts and really clean up that engine bay. simple green and a lot of water. Dont let the simple green sit though, it corrodes the aluminum. And if your there already, change out the oil pan gasket, and the valve cover gasket. Wonder if he should do the head gasket as well? Might as well. Id pull the motor and start the process.

 

CV boots are EASY, much easier than a clutch. Pull the upper ball joint loose, rotate the hub and remove the axle by prying between the trans and shaft. Then disassemble the shaft , regrease, and install new boot. BUT.. so you know the boot cost around 15 bux and an hour or so to change, Advance Auto parts sells remaned shafts for 35 bux and your old core. I would save the time and hassle and replace the whole shaft.. much easier and better than changing the boot and finding out the joint is bad also, and having to change anyway. Just my thoughts. And if you want an easier/cheaper solution, they make boots with a zipper that can be changed without removing the axle at all (cost around $25) Hope this helps

 

cv boot 20 mins

 

Pull Motor, do clutch - 3.5 hours.
cv boot- 15 minutes.

All depending on if you have necesarry tools.
I personally can pull a motor and put it back in in 2 hours if i have all tools handy.

 

^man, you must be superman, or flash....thats fast, or either my teammate and I are really slow.

 

^^ you get faster after you do it a couple times
