    Most people just swap out with new axles because once the boot fails the grease is lost and contaminates get in... But if that's all you can afford then go with the ones the are sliced so you don't have to remove anything to install them. They won't last as a long compared to a brand new pair of CV axles so start saving up for when the boots fail again.
