How do you replace a worn heal pad on a ski boot?
Take your boots to a ski/boot shop that sells the same brand. They can replace the heel piece, or at least order a replacement for you.
What causes a knocking sound when turning the wheel?
If the "knocking" sound is a heavy clicking sound when turning, and if the vehicle is front-wheel-drive, you probably have a worn CV joint, often referred to as a half-shaft. This problem can sometimes be temporarily corrected by repacking the joint with grease and replacing the rubber CV boot which is probably torn. Usually, however, it is best to replace the shaft since it is necessary to remove it to replace the boot anyway, and this constitutes most of the labor. On the other hand you can do a bit of a cheat by cutting off the old boot, repacking the joint with grease, and re-covering it with a special split boot that does not require removal of the shaft. A CV joint (Constant Velocity Joint) is the equivalent of a Universal Joint in the drive shaft of a rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
What causes the right front driver side tire to shake like it's coming off?
First, check the lug nuts and wheel bearing... maybe it really IS coming off.If both of those are okay, next check the CV joint. Typically a CV joint that's worn that bad will have a torn or damaged "boot". Whenever you see a damaged CV joint boot, just replace the CV joint. After-market boots seldom work.

What causes snapping and creaking when the brake is pressed while turning the steering wheel on a Chevy Blazer?
What you're describing sounds a lot like a worn or damaged CV joint. Check the half-shaft and see if the boot is intact or if grease has leaked out. If the boot isn't perfect or if you can see any grease that has been thrown from the boot, the CV joint is toast.

How much would a cv joint cost to be repaired?
Don't try to repair a worn out CV joint, replace it with a new or reconditioned one. The cost would depend on the vehicle which you failed to describe.
Do you need a cast under a moon boot?
No. The boot replaces or is worn instead of a cast.
What is a boot kiltie for?
Because laces can be extremely abrasive. Especially once they've have become dirty and gritty. The kiltie sits between the lace and leather on the boot and protects the leather on the boot, As the kiltie can be replaced after it is worn and it is quite expensive to replace the leather on your boots.

How do you repair a CV joint on a 1989 Nissan Maxima?
AnswerI don't believe these are repairable.... they just have to be replaced. Often it is cheaper and more efficient to replace the whole axle since the cost of recon axles is now so cheap. My problem is getting the outer cv joint off the axle to replace the boot. I recall from my days at an Infiniti store that the techs used a big vice and a heavy hammer to beat the joint off the end of the shaft. The object is to compress a snap ring which is on the shaft inside the joint. The hammer method works...eventually. But I feel sure there is a smarter and quicker way to achieve this. Does anyone know of one?Get the CV joint puller tool and you can take the joint apart. If it is worn, you will need a new one.Usually it is cheaper and easier to replace the whole axle, regardless.
What parts do you need to replace when fixing a worn out rear CV joint on a 2003 Subaru Outback Wagon H6 3.0L?
