Broke my right axle last week at the track.. just took it out today.. I was using that ball joint fork like tool to get the tie rod endo off and the lower ball joint off. Tie rod end came off fine, but I tore the lower ball joint boot. Can I just buy a new boot to replace it?? Or do I have to do something else...
 
Its a good Idea to get new ball joints pressed in if you race it other than dragging it. My brothers bmw had a ball joint that completely let loose, but bmw has a metal beam that prevents it from falling out completely . It caused bad alignment and for his tires to wear really bad and he had a blow out on a front tire.
