Drive shaft boot clamps

The clamps on this basket case are rusted beyond use. Suggestions on where to find new ones? No need for authenticity. Nice new functional ones would be perfect.

These are about 105mm diameter and about 8mm wide. No idea what they even call these narrow band clamps.

Just a thought here, have you tried an auto parts store for CV joint, driveshaft or ATV shaft clamps of a similar dia. I also believe they make a tie strap style clamp in case you don't need to take the joint apart and only need to replace the clamp.

kawboy suggested: CV-Joint-Boot-Clips-Clamps-Stainless-Steel

Exactly what I was going to suggest. Used these to hold the collector-wrap and they're great !

Perfect! Those had not dawned on me. I even have the “correct” crimpers for those clamps.

LOL Thank you Frank. I was thinking since I saw the post - how the hell do I tighten these? So.... there is a special tool for that. That means these clamps are a one time use?
