    Q:
    How can I check the CV boots on my Mercury Mariner? Posted by Customer
    A:
    First of all, the steering wheel should be rocked to detect excessive free play in various components, symptoms such as body movement and swaying should be observed, shock absorbers should be evaluated, steering shafts and gears should also be inspected, loose bolts should be checked for, and broken parts too. Also, steering components need to be tested, ball joints and suspension arm bushings ought to be assessed, further, the CV Boot should be inspected for damages.

    Q:
    How to replace CV joints and boots on Mercury Mariner? Posted by Customer
    A:
    If CV joints show wear, consider rebuilt CV axles or split boots from auto parts stores to save time. ABS-equipped models need ABS sensor rings inspection for any damage. To overhaul, remove the CV axle, then the inner CV joint and boot. Mark the tripod-outer race relationship before disassembling, cleaning, and inspecting the tripod assembly for abnormal wear. Replace if necessary. During reassembly, slide on the clamps and boot, install new stop-ring and bearing retainer clip, repack with CV joint grease, equalize boot pressure, and tighten boot clamps. Reinstall the CV axle.

    Q:
    What are the steps involved in removing the inner CV joint and boot for the 2006 Ford Escape? Posted by Customer
    A:
    The removal of the inner CV joint and boot involves cutting off the boot clamps, pulling the boot back from the joint, and sliding the joint housing off. It's important to mark the relationship between the tripod and the outer race. Next, a center punch is used to mark the tripod and axleshaft to ensure proper reassembly. The stop-ring ends are spread apart, moved towards the shaft's center, and the retainer clip is removed from the axleshaft end. The tripod joint is driven off the driveaxle with a brass punch and hammer, ensuring the bearing surfaces or the shaft's splines are not damaged. The stop-ring is then removed from the axleshaft and discarded.

    Q:
    What components should you assess at the rear of the 2001 Ford Escape, and what should you look for in drive axle boots? Posted by Customer
    A:
    At the rear of the vehicle, assess suspension arm bushings for deterioration. Inspect drive axle boots, especially the outer CV boot, for tears, cracks, and loose clamps. It's also a good practice to wash drive axle boots to prevent premature deterioration caused by oil and grease. Replace any boots that show evidence of cracks, leaking lubricant, or damage.
