Did u do it with the pins in the dog bones? Oh this is the tool I don't want to buy http://www.davesmotors.com/TFE-HD-Dogbone-Boot-Install-Multi-Tool-for-5SC-Dogbones-.html

I use dielectric silicone paste 3M makes in a plastic jar. Smear the inside of the boot with it and dip the dogbone end in it. The boot slides right over the pins, one quick motion kinda like a band-aid lol

I'll check that out! Sounds like a painless cheap method ?

I think I have torn one boot doing it like that in numerous dozen done. That grease works well in the cv joint too BTW. Doesn't sling out
