Came across this article in a 4x4 mag. May have the right size boots to help those who need to upgrade their ifs.website is http://www.rockfordcv.com also at http://www.rcvperformance.com they have an interesting high performance CV boot and not made out of rubber. Super expensive stuff but worth the read.

I checked into the RCV CV's but 2x's as strong isn't worth 10x's the price!

yeah, RCV is expensive and unless you're doing something silly it doesn't make sense to spend the money. You'll just start rippin up the front diff, the hubs or the transfer case most likely. Need a bigger spline count before you go full retard on axles.
