Default Check the axle for the right boot location
BDR879 Check the inner location of the cv boot. Looking at 3/4 a picture the boot is stretched to far and the angle of the joint is pulling off the boot. Remove the inner clamp from the axle
install the steel strap after you fill the boot and joint with grease.
make sur that 1 rib on the axle is on the inside of the clamp and the other side has a rib there also. This way it can't slide.
Make sure the axle is in the CV joint and is not poping out. the clip may be bad and causing this to happen. Could you post a couple more pictures of the joint?? Any chance of getting a first name?? Would be nice. Rick L.
