Phil,

I like your idea even better than mine... CV Joint Boots are made to hold up 
under the worst conditions of off-road use too...  I'd still recommend 
lubricating the sleeve/mast junction with low temp SILICONE grease... At 
least the friction between the mast and sleeve will be reduced.

Thanks for a 'better idea'...
