I always try and post an update in case it helps other folks
I finally found time to sort out my outer cv boot today especially as it’s Mot time too
![Thumbs Down :thumbsdown:](./images/smilies/smilie_bad.gif)
I’m lucky I managed to cash a few favours in an get use of a two post lift at a mates garage.
Used the guides on here
![Thumbs Up :thumbsup:](./images/smilies/smilie_thumbsup.gif)
Next dropped the lower arm, nut and bolt came out a dream, not like my 02 shogun used to be which used monkey metal nuts and bolts

Next clouted the spline with a drift and easing tool !!
![ROFL :rofl:](./images/smilies/smilie_roflmao2.gif)
Shifted the strut assembly enough to slide out the splined drive shaft without moving anything else. Bang on result
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Cut of boot checked no S41t was in the grease, then cheated ....used a stretch boot powered by air tool, slipped it over in minutes, repacked with grease , result.

Re assembled with a touch of copper grease here an there and it then flew through mot

Hope this helps a few others, I could not afford to run mine without all the help on here.

Hope this helps someone else, it is easier than you think as I was not looking forward to this job
Cheers all
