The axle arms are not laying exact as it will be installed in to a suspension on the pic

But a answer to the Q


Yes the boots screws need to be tightend around inbetween 10 and 11 o clock and not at 9 O clock or 12 O Clock

At 9 O clock there will be excess oil leackage
At 12 O clock the thick rubber where the screws are does not have so much flex and the boots tend to tear the old std thick rubber type but not these silicone ones
Also the big clamps need to be tightened in such a manner that if it accurs that a boot is leaking the clamps need to be accesable to loosen in the car and not have a wrestling contest to remove the clamps
These Boots are made of a Silicone type rubber which take much more heat and alot more flexible and are alot easier to work with

Yes look like a Puma , but i checked the Puma at Bugger and the The Dino is wider and longer. The Car is a replica of the Ferrari - Dino . " 60 " .

My car was a half build / Restore project that i picked up in Stilfontein. I stripped out all the rust, 16 000 VW and started all over. The car also had a V8 in years ago, so i needed to fix the nose. So it was back to square one, but it is finally moving forward.

Keep an eye on Junk Mail , there are from time to time , old project and bargains.
