Most people just replace the entire axle with a reman axle (and they often come from Mexico). Here in the States, the entire reman axle with new boots can be purchased around $65.00.
A new boot kit which comes with the grease and bands cost about $20 - $30. The disassembly, cleaning and labor is usually more than an hour so that is why reman axles are popular. The boot replacement job is also messy meaning you need some cleaning solvent, protective glooves, rags, and plenty of hand cleaner.
