1.remove big nut of end of cv joint
2.diconnect anti roll bar,steering arm and track control arm off the hub carrier
3 pull the hub carier towards you to slide the cv joint out the back of it.
4 remove old boot and refit new boot.
5 reassembly all back together, its reverse of removal!! Love that haynes saying!!
