Usually if the boot is bad the cv shaft is soon to follow so they are sold as a unit. I dont know if you can just buy the boots.

You can just replace the CV boots if you want O'Rielly sells them for like $19.95.

BUT (Important)

I would just replace the half shafts. I bought mine for like $200 and they are a life time warranty. So if my boots rip, tear, or crack again they will just give me new ones.
