Working on my t-case today so I droped the drive shaft and decited to clean it up. When I pulled the rubber boot off of it about a tall boy cans worth of water poured out of the boot and out of the female end of the shaft. My question is should I replace the boot? or should I not run one? There was some surface rust under the boot but it came right off. let me know what you guys think. thanks- N8

I'd replace
If at all possible replace, otherwise water/mud/sand would really get in there. If its getting past the shaft into the female end could cause troubles
