If you're going to change the boots of the CV joint, one must think twice since you can get brand new rebuilt CV boots in an exchange which will benefit you in the long run. Ensure that you check on the price as well as the availability of the parts before you start disassembling. Some auto part stores contain split type replacing boots that you can fix without the elimination of the CV boot, this would do great, but in case it is recommended to get rid of the CV boot so that one can clean the CV joint to lessen the prospect of wear in contaminants. Reverse the steps to disassembling the outboard CV joints because all the outer joints are Birfield joints and the inner joints can be tripod, U-type tripod or the double offset joints. In the case of a tripod-type inner joint, the exact procedure is carried out by pulling out the CV boot, placing the same in a vise with wooden jaws for gripping, followed by a test to ensure that there is no excessive play or any jamming when operating it. Whether a boot is wearable or not it should be demolished, each component of the joint should be washed then checked for damages. Lose and unbolt the clamps, then unbolster and unlock the outer boot and slide the housing off the joint, properly engraving the tripod and axleshaft. Carefully awaken the tripod joint by taking off its snap-ring and using a brass punch and hammer on the CV boot not to ruin the bearing surfaces. Wipe all the parts in solvent to check how they are worn out and depending on how the inner CV joint is worn, then a new one it can be put in a new axleshaft in case the outer CV joint is worn then the only option is to replace the outer CV joint and also the axleshaft. For reassembling, expose the splines on the last end of the axleshaft to boots, put on the clamps and boot(s) around the axleshaft, apply grease to the tripod assembly and housing, push the tripod in the housing with the help of packing the grease around the member. Confirm the set up of the boot, likely modify the length of the CV boot and balance pressure in the boot before tightening the boot clamps and finally fixing the CV boot.
