I picked up some front axles that were from a manual 98 v70xc (no trans was available unfortunately). I want to change the boots before fitting as they show signs of degradation and awd shafts aren't the as easy to find .

They have a 33mm centre shaft which is larger than ordinary axles for both manual and auto. The part number for rhd passenger side is 9163581. The label on the shaft says its for 5 cyl turbo diesel manual.

I have already bought the ordinary 850 manual boots (31256237) and they were way too small. I then tried xc90 boots too (similar dimensions but 30mm too long) .

Does anyone know where I can get the right boots? I have tried looking through VIDA but couldn't find the right part number.

Is there a good place that lists cv boots by size?

Heres a rough picture of the dimensions:

Any help is deeply appreciated.

Kelpro catalogue attached, theres a bit of stretch in the boots so should be able to make something close work.

What a decent bloke you are tim @timbo. Generous to a fault with your knowledge and time. There should be an honour board that acknowledges you and those of similar ilk.

I daresay your humility would demur. But thankyou.
