I know this topic has been beat to death but after tearing my inner boots the first time I did what everyone else has done to prevent it from happening again ( switched from 3" toy tec spacer to bilstein 5100 set at 2.5 or whatever the last slot is, and bought the bates 930 cv boots) but after about 3 months they are torn wide open again. The weird thing is they are torn even worse than the stock boots were with the higher ride height of the toy tec 3" lift, they are actually torn the whole way around the boot. Im totally out of ideas here and its not like im running any unique set up at all. pretty much the same as everyone else in here,

2000 tundra 4.7, ext cab, 305/70/16 mickey M/T , mickey classic II rims, bilstein 5100, 1'" diff drop

any help here would be fabulous before I torch my front end and buy a geo.
thanks

Aoeugene, did you do the differential drop when you did the lift? I've had my 3" lift on for about 4 years now with no problems. Oh, Welcome to the forum.
