I use them on my 5b. They're good. You need to grease the axles because if you don't, they will wrap around the cvd shaft and get torn away..

Which one you use grey or black?

Are not Grey one hard to put on cup?

Get the Hostile Grey boots. Use a non petroleum based grease. There is a You Tube video for quick install of these boots.

I already bought Black one, grey was out of stock on DDM.

Waiting for delivery.

I think its hard to put grey boot on stock dog-bone, because pin is unremovable.

I use the black one. No idea about how hard it is.

Does it fit good, does not it slips out?

Have you installed on all dog-bones, total 12?

Thanks

I use needle nose pliers to expand boot then slip axle through boot.it doesn't matter what color boots no grease needed....

I only installed them on the rear CVDs of the baja. They're 4mm in dia thick CVDs.

They just fit tight.

I put PhatDad icky CVD grease so that they don't stick to the CVD while turning
