[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 440154, member: 18789"] My biggest problem with the boots is that I was tired of the self tappers not being tight or even snug on some of them, so I tried to solve the problem with nutserts which was a mistake. The nutserts have no tolerance for the bolt alignment so everything has to be perfect. On a curved trans tunnel, that doesn’t work very well which unfortunately now I realize. The boots in fully stock form are not that bad, main part that sucks is the inner being under the shifters. It’s not the end of the world to wiggle the transfer case shifter off (inner boot will then come up), remove trans shifter+boot as an assembly, take to the vise to separate, and then reassemble in the Jeep after installing the trans base into the trans.
