yh your be fine just don't go off rading like it. it's only a cv boot.
quick fix gafer tape will stop the grease from spreading more -

bloomin' heck will!! Thats worse then my "catastrophic failure"
They aint expensive to buy mate, around £20. Do you have free wheeling hubs mate?! If not i'd get some!
I've got to sort some out soon. Or its going to be more trips to roughtrax an more trips to my uncles!

just wrap in clingfilm and gaffer tape it.
although if the cv joint is still ok I'd get the boot sorted out asap.
not a big job really.Alan

Problem is if the cv joint goes then you have to add another £70+vat+del. (for new) to replace it!Comment

What did i tell you about prodding it with a screw driver to see if it was full of grease only joking
Looks like you need to be taking it carefull for the next few days until you get it replaced. Will be a bugger to get the grease cleaned up afterwards.Comment

Looking at the angle of those drive shafts, you NEED manual hubs mate.
