My tip would be, if you have any crescent wrenches, throw them away.

We all are tempted. I fell in the trap one time in my younger days, a set of combinations from 1/4 to 1 1/4......real pretty and dirt cheap. I knew better, and really didn't need them, but they glittered so enticingly. A moment of weakness and bad judgement.
I gave the whole set to a poor schmuck aquaintance that has never owned a decent tool in his life. He was as happy as a pig in poop.

Then cut new one very carefully down one side; one side usually has a seam; cut along it. Put in place by sliding over shafts through cut opening. Then super glue the surfaces back together, using a super glue that'll set fairly quickly. Put clamps on the each side of the boot over the 2 opposing shafts. Drive away. Did this on a 220D Benz once. Sold it that way. Boot was still holding.
