Bottom line: I received a Toyota branded CV boot kit today and it had a style of CV boot clamp I had never seen, and can't find anything about it on the internet.
Back story: While doing the front breaks on my daughter's 2008 Prius last week, I noticed the passenger side boot had split. So I googled around, found a couple of decent tutorials (Shout out to Car Care Nut on YT), and figured I'd jump in.
I was expecting one set of Oetiker style cv clamps (usually outer boot) and one set of of foldover band clamps for the inner.
What I got was a set of foldover clamps (expected) and another *different* style of clamp that looks like a foldover clamp (it has a tail and the two side tabs to tap down, but it also has a locking mechanism... I can't anything like it on the google machine.
Is there a tool for these so I don't screw it up?
