Anyone know where I can get split (inside driver side) CV boots for a 1991
Toyota Camry Wagon. This car has 240K miles on it, and I can't afford to
pay to have the boots replaced by a mechanic.

I know the split boots do not last very long, but I only want to use the car
for a few more years.

Tks much

MC

I'd recommend an aftermarket Cardone new halfshaft ($72) or Cardone
rebuilt halfshaft ($60).

Your local auto parts store should be able to order split boots. They
should be about $10.88 like the following from partsamerica.com. So
two on one halfshaft would be about $25.

Do consider a rebuilt axle (by Cardone) for $60, or a new aftermarket
Cardone for $72.
The difference between the boots and the rebuilt is about $35. And you
get warranty from Cardone (lifetime with the new?). Some parts stores
have free loaner tools. Check them out.

I selected regular Camry, not the AllTrac, so you might want to check
again yourself.
