03 tj sport, 4.0L

there is a rubber boot that goes between the 2 pieces of the front
driveshaft. I tore mine off getting stuck on some logs.

Anyplace I can get one, besides the dealer? Also, what kind of grease do I
pack in there?

thanks, matt

They are not that much at the dealer. Make sure you get the front one, not the
rear one. Parts guys sometimes can't read.

Bad news is you have to take the driveshaft off the front piniom to replace it
but it isn't too difficult. Just use some standard multipurpose grease. Would
be a good idea to clean the splines as well.

Match-mark it so it goes back with the same orientation... keeps what
balance you have.
