    The ES boots are discontinued. The SX boots are still available. They have different part numbers but the difference between the two is the molded angle of the boot but they will interchange. Don't buy a new boot off Ebay. Go to your Honda shop and get one. Service Honda has them for about 17.00 plus shipping.

    Maybe it is my computer but the website will not let me use the search feature. What is the part # for the 250sx boot.

    The boot is a few bucks cheaper threw partzilla.com and their shipping charges and service is a A LOT better than servicehonda IMO .

    How difficult were these to change? Can you explain your process?

    You have to remove the swing arm to replace them or at least move it back far enough to get the drive shaft unhooked from the motor to slip it in. Mine had bearings go out in the diff cause the water got in there and rusted the drive shaft and eat the pinion seal out.

    On the SX, you may be able to push the driveshaft off the motor to the rear. The propeller shaft is spring loaded. Some guys have reported that it wouldn't push back far enough to get it off the motor. In that case, just unbolt the swingarm leaving the shock and brake cables still attached. Just push it back a couple inches or so. If you are able to get the shaft off the motor, let the propeller shaft drop. Now you will have enough room to get the new boot on.
