Jubilee clips on cv

[Matt]

Can I stick a jubilee clip on the small end of the cv boot, where it sits on the driveshaft? Can't get the clip to grip on it. Will it foul anything?

[Toms306]

Can't see it fouling anything on the small end tbh. Could get away with a cable tie there if you preferred though.

The official answer would be no. But i see it often, and never had an issue caused by it.

It is surprising how often I see a jubilee clip on cv boots. Would be ok but I would go for a cable tie on the small end

[Matt]

I have a jubilee clip here, that why I ask! The new clip that came with the boot it just a little too big and doesn't hold a firm grip

[welshpug]

no, a sturdy cable tie will suffice however.

if the clip is not gripping it will need pulling or crimping tighter.

Just use a decent cable tie.
