ABSTRACT:
A replacement split boot assembly for a constant velocity joint on a vehicle is provided with slip-fit, non-threaded fasteners. The split boot body has pairs of opposing tabs across a longitudinal slit. Each of the tabs has a hole. The slip-fit, non-threaded fasteners have a head on one end and a radial projection spaced a distance from the head on the shaft. The fasteners are adapted to be urged through the opposing tab holes on the split boot body until the pair of tabs is located between the head of the fastener and the radial projection on the shaft. A retainer is used to lock the tabs between the head of the fastener and the retainer by urging the retainer over the radial projection of the fastener.
