Hi cattlerepairman! Thanks for the info! Yeah, undersized even a little makes it a real pain. Had a set of those once. We had a dusting of snow two days ago. Still haven't been able to get much done outside. The ground is still too wet. How about you in the great up North?FWIW, I got my axle boots from rockwelloffroad. They are intentionally a tad oversized and that makes mounting a lot more pleasant. Holding up well so far (3 years).
