Default cv joint diameter size?

I have a 2004 Ford F-150 4x4, does anyone know the front cv joint diameter size? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Or the diameter of the cv side of the outer cv boot would work too.
​​​​​​​thank you

There are several important diameters - shaft minimum, spline median, ball circle, & cup lip. What diameter are you looking for, and why? Are you trying to buy a replacement boot?

I'm trying to find a split cv boot kit that will fit. I tried one but the cv joint side diameter was too small. I found one online that might fit with these dimensions
Universal Split CV Boot Kit
Driveshaft Size: 19-35mm
CV Joint Size: 56-120mm
thanks

Split boots are a joke. A BAD one. It's too easy to ****** the shaft out & put a real boot on to waste all the time, effort, & grease on something that's already got a built-in leak. Around here, I can get a pro to install a boot on a removed CV shaft assembly for ~$20, including the boot. Put your location in your profile, and you may get some references in your area.
