Outer/inner boot ZL1
 

Hi,
My Name is Norton from Germany.
I drive a 2013 ZL1.

Last Tuesday on my 3rd Inspection,
i saw that the inner boot ( rear axle, right side)
Is damaged!

If i choose my car at gmpartsonline there isn't
an inner boot for my car ...
Just the complette ( 22953759) axle assembly !
But the axle is okay !

There is the outer boot (92228290) and i think
the outer is the same like the inner ...BUT
the next Problem is that the partnumber is
the same as the Camaro SS outer boot!
When i choose the ZL1 at your Vehicle,
there is written ...
outer boot right W/ZL1 (at the Part List) ! That's what i need !(I hope)
But in product details is written without ZL1 !?
I know that the SS and ZL1 have different axles.
So what i have to Do ?
Choose my car and order the outer boot W/ZL1?

Please help me :frusty:

The part # is correct for the outer boot on the ZL1, the inner is not listed. Maybe someone who works at a dealer (parts counter) will chime in.

IMHO and personal experience of replacing many axles; the amount of time that it takes to rebuild the seals and clean it all out you would be money ahead to do a new axle. To get all the grease cleaned up and redone is dang near impossible to get all of the impurities out and they will cause a failure in the seal if not properly cleaned.

I know the axles are expensive, especially being shipped to Europe haha. But, more bad than good usually happens when only replacing CV axle boots.

I agree 100%. Last year I found a tear in the driver side axle outer boot and it was spraying grease every where. I bought what I thought was a ZL1 specific boot replacement kit but it was for the SS. Contacted another dealer who said they do not have a boot replacement kit for the ZL1. So I bought a generic kit and attempted to make it fit. What a major PITA to tear apart the axle. It didn't work so I bought a new axle and installed it and call it a day. Check ebay for used axles. They are much cheaper than new and should work fine.

Is the outer ZL1 boot Same like the inner?

Is the outer boot same like the inner ?

Well reviving this because i had semilar issue. Outer cv boot torn on my 12 ZL1 ordered the 92228290 outer boot kit and it is not correct... cant find a boot for ZL1. Guess im out $500 because GM doesnt have a damn boot for these cars..

Alright guys instead of spending $500 on a new axle I found a fix. GM does not make a boot for any 2012-2015 ZL1's and they wanted $500+ at the stealership for an axle. I found an axle boot and cut it. Already did some hard laynching and high end pulls and its holding up great. 686-2326 is the part number of the boot I used.
