#1. Get a big can of hand cleaner.
#2. You'll need a tri-square tool to remove the CV bolts.
#3. Install new boots at the same time.
#4. Use high quality molybdenum grease 3 oz per CV joint.
#5. New CV joints are very tight, be careful not to let the balls get
loose (difficult to get back in). Don't work on but one CV at a time.
Never mix the balls from one CV to another (unless you're willing to
accept junk).
#6. Some CVs just slip right off others require some persuasion.

That is about it, should take you about two hours and one roll of hand
towels.
