Depends on what they want to do.

All I do is mark which way they turn, and which side they are on,
and assuming good boots and not excessive play in the CV's...
I just add 'black slimey' moly graph grease...
quite generously,  in the flanage areas, in the balls, and some in the
bootls ( I find lots of CV's without much grease in them )
I swap 'em side for side and end for end , torque 'em in right ...
and 'you're done' .
That might take me two hours.
Depends on if the screws come out nicely or not also.
But if you can get a shop to do that.....
