Thread: CV Joint Boot Advice Needed

So I have read everything I can and used the search feature to no avail. I need to replace all 4 CV Joint Boots on my 92' SE-R (non ABS). From what I have read here those in the know suggest OEM boots and Redline CV-2 grease but nobody gets into the part numbers much. From what I can tell the outter boots (39241-53J28) are still available from Nissan but the inners (C9GDA-8U025) are not. But then I thought I read somewhere that Infiniti G20 inner boots are available and are more robust so I called Infiniti and they said they are available and then proceeded to give me the same Nissan part number as above (C9GDA-8U025). So whats my issue? Well before I go spending $140 on CV boots I wanted to a ask you all if I am ordering the correct part numbers. I am sure the outters are the correct part number but I thought I read somewhere that the drivers side inner boot is different then the passengers side inner boot. Can anyone confirm if I am on the right track here?

Thanks!

I'm not sure about the part numbers, and I'm just too busy to look that stuff up right now.
What you're saying makes some sense, and I bet you have the right stuff figured out, but if you want to be sure, just give @GregV a call and he'll sort you out with the right parts at the right price.
He's one of the main reasons I never got good at looking up part numbers. Because he almost always did it for me, and hooked me up with the right stuff.

Thanks, I'll reach out to him...

The inner tri-shaped boot should be OEM. The outers do not matter much.

My local Nissan parts dept says the inners are NLA. Infiniti parts dept says they have inners for the G20 but not 100% sure those would be correct even though the parts number appears to be the same as the correct Nissan part. The only reason I am posting this here is because you all know better then I what I need to do this correctly. My car is lowered about an inch all around and apparently lowering these cars leads to torn CV boots. Not exactly sure why this would be because the suspension geometry and angle of attack for the axle doesn't seem to change a whole lot.

HELLO @ABIKEPEDDLER. NICE OF YOU TO JOIN US HERE ON THE FORUM. YOU RECENTLY GOT THAT REALLY CLEAN B13 FROM BAT. I LOOKED INTO THIS. RH INNER BOOT AND LH INNER ARE DIFFERENT. THE OUTERS ARE BOTH THE SAME. RH INNER PART # C9GDA8U025. LH INNER PART # C9GDA8U026. THE OUTER PART # IS 3924153J28.

THE RH INNER BOOT IS STILL AVAILIBLE. THE LH BOOT IS NLA.

THE OUTER BOOTS ARE STILL AVAILIBLE AS WELL.

I AM A COUNTERMAN FOR A NISSAN DEALER. I CAN ORDER THEM FOR YOU IF YOU'D LIKE.

WTF caps?

LOL. REMEMBER KEO HAD NAMED ME CAPS BACK IN 2014 IN THE CHAT BOX

Thank you CAPS! So helpful! Now I just need to figure out what the best alternative is for the inner left (drivers side). Everything I have read on here suggests that the aftermarket alternatives are all crap. Rock Auto carries just one Beck Arnley option. Guess I will have to go with that and avoid using the steering wheel to make actual turns.

It is probably going to help someone in the future having those part numbers posted. Thank you!

Caps types in CAPS. Every Nissan Parts guy indefinitely does this.
