Remove the CV boot and mount it in a vise, ensuring the jaws are lined with wood or rags to prevent damage. For outer CV joint boots and 2007 and earlier inner CV joint boots, remove the boot clamps and, if equipped, cut the swage ring off using side cutters; note that 2007 and earlier models require a specific tool for pressing the ring in place. Slide the boot back to access the outer joint retaining snap-ring, then use snap-ring pliers to remove the boot. Clean all components with solvent, inspecting for wear; if any part is worn, replace the entire CV boot assembly. Install a new clamp or swage ring onto the sealing boot, slide it onto the axleshaft, and push it until it rests over the third groove. If equipped, compress the swage ring using the appropriate tool, then install a new snap-ring and bearing retainer clip. Place half the grease from the sealing boot kit into the outer CV joint assembly housing and pack the remaining grease into the boot. Align the splines on the axleshaft with those on the CV joint assembly, gently driving the joint onto the axleshaft until seated. Equalize the pressure in the boot and tighten the clamps. For 2008 and later inner CV joint boots, cut off the boot clamps, drive the end cap off the CV joint, clean the joint face, and remove the snap ring. Slide the boot back and drive the inner joint off the axleshaft, then slide the boot off. Clean the outer race and tri-pod bearing assembly, inspecting for wear that may require replacing the inner CV joint. Slide the clamps and boot onto the axleshaft, wrapping the splines with tape to prevent damage. Place the tri-pod inside the joint housing and slide the joint onto the shaft, using a hammer and brass drift to drive it on. Install a retaining snap-ring, apply CV joint grease to the tri-pod assembly, joint housing, and boot, then slide the boot into place and equalize the pressure. Tighten the boot clamps and drive the end cap onto the CV joint before installing the CV boot assembly.
