Tbar crank set back...advice?
 
OK, so I just had an add a leaf put in the rear of my 99 Blazer and a tbar crank in the front, but since the crank the CV boots have slipped and have been throwing grease everywhere. My blazer is still in the shop and getting new CV axles and such, plus they are being ridiculous and lowering the front all the way back down to where it should be...so now the front will be A LOT lower than the rear. To make sure the new boots don't slip off what do you guys recommend? As I am going to crank the tbars back up some (just maybe not as much as before) to not have such a huge difference in height, I just don't want a repeat performance, if you will. Hose clamps? Zip ties? Something is better than nothing. Thanks

Well when I cranked mine the boots fell off too, so I replaced the cv's and left the lift as it was and so far my boots still stay on. I have probably 10,000 miles on them now with the bars almost maxed

Awesome, thanks for the replies. I backed the front down around 5/8" just to make sure it wont happen (or at least to delay wear on the front end a little longer) rides much better too with the front lower and the tbars not so tight. I have a little bounce in the ride again instead of it being stiff as a freaking rock
