CV Boot Clamp Pliers, Single Ear Hose Drive Shaft CV Axle Boot Clamp Removal and Installation Tool Compatible with Toyota Lexus etc OEM 09521-24010

Seems to work just fine, still haven't used the gloves. Great clamp tool.

Don’t buy the plyers, buy this. Much easier to use and frees up both hands.

This tool worked exactly as expected. I added some anti-seize to the threads to ensure smooth operation for future use.

Tool is great but the bolt that drives the jaws together is very soft. I replaced it with a socket head cap screw from the local hardware store and it worked great. Much better than the pliers. Hold the tool with a crescent wrench to keep it from twisting.

Worked great on replacement fuel line clamps.

This tool is not bulky and simple to use.

More than paid for itself the first time. Sneak it right in and tighten the clamp. It will go places the pliers only wash they could. I wish I had had this years ago.

This CV axle boot strap clamping tool is well designed and work flawlessly clamping strong CV boot straps like the original GM CV boot straps on 4WD trucks front CV axles, which require a high torque tool to get them to specs. However, the bolt that pushes the jaws together is made of low grade junk metal. I clamped four GM straps for a SIERRA 2500HD diesel pickup truck, and the tool clamping bolt is already stripped almost to the point of failure, even though I cleaned and greased it before use. I like the tool so much, that I am going to keep it and replace the bolt with a good grade 8 bolt, and hope the thread on the jaws hold. The description of this tool is also misleading/wrong. This tool is not made to remove the clamps, it only works for compressing them upon installation.
