I jsut tore my boot this weekend, and am in the market for a new front now (screw OEM)... But really dont understand the diffrences between all the ones out now (1310 vs 1350, ect..)... Can someone give me some advice... Highest lift I am ever going is 3" TF Coils and 35"s...

Ive been rolling around with no boot on the front for months. I dont think a torn boot alone is reason enough to get a new drive shaft. I mean, im going to get a new one eventually any way, but the torn boot wont even hurry me.

I am not concerned, but when the time comes that I need the new one, I'll be buying the 1310.

Das Boot
You can still drive with your existing driveshaft. The boot tears pretty easily. It keeps the gunk out. If you don't do alot of water/mud forging, you should be ok for a while. There have been plenty of people driving around without the boot. Eventually the driveshaft would break down but I don't think you need to go right out and buy anything right off the bat. Of course, when you DO decide to get a new one, I would suggest going with Coast. I just got a rear driveshaft from them and it is very nice and they know their stuff.
