    How do you change the outer n/s cv boot?
    I have already bought the boot and started to strip the old one off, but I can't see how the new boot will fit. The new boot is not the stretch type.

    Pull the old boot up to get access to the Velocity joint IIRC There is a circlip in the velocity joint, Undo it and it comes off and pull old boot off. Then put new boot on. Put velocity joint back on, fill up with grease make sure there's no grease on the velocity joint where the boot will sit, give it a wipe to make sure then tie it up.
