What are bellows?

Bellows are also sometimes referred to as "boots". It is a rubber covering over a CV joint that keeps dirt out of the joint. A CV joint is on all front wheel drive axles and some (independent rear suspension) rear axles. If the bellows develops a crack, dirt can get in to the grease within the joint and cause wear.

What does the cv joint boot look like?

The CV joint boot is typically a flexible, rubber or plastic component that resembles a bellows or accordion shape, allowing it to expand and contract as the vehicle's suspension moves. It is often black or gray in color and is designed to protect the CV joint from dirt and debris while retaining grease. The boot is usually secured at both ends with clamps to prevent any leakage. Over time, it may show signs of wear or cracking, indicating it needs replacement.
