I wanted to show the big boys this 700-4 could follow them. I showed them alright. I have a small hole in the outer boot on the back right axle, it's full of water and most likely sand even though it's a little hole. The back left outer got twisted really bad and looks horrible. The back left is popping real bad, I know it's shot but the other axle that has the twisted boot wasn't popping. Would y'all go with a new boot if the grease looks good in it or not take the chance and just change our booth?

If it rotates freely by hand, I would try to salvage it. At worse, even if it pops a little, you could save it as a spare to carry for an emergency and buy a full replacement.

You may be a good candidate for Rhino axles. I'm with @joeymt33. Replace what you have with new and rebuild your old ones to keep as spares.

RUN IT after cleaning and liberal greasing either nest boot.
