What axles did you use? 90-93 tegs? Are you lowered at a really odd angle?

ya i have 90-93 teg axles , um im lowered 4 inches

Actually ya the inner boot breaks from the end where it connects to the intermediate shaft

i still dont know why it does this, i mean my driver side wheel is pushed back a tad bit from an accident but i still dont see how it would matter
