I have not read specific info on that.
In fact with the exception of the Made in China Annular Annular Axles some Members have installed; most Members seem to have the Homokinetic axles.
One of the Members claimed he chaned the 2 Boots on his Homokinetic Axles using one of the Plastic Cone type Tools (Dorman) to stretch the Boot over and leaving the Axle attached to the Differential.
He freeded the Axle from the Rear Wheel Hub and pushed it to one side to do it.
I assume he used Grease in the CV Joints but do not remember.
I have never Changed any Boots before but did change Axles. With the exception of removing the Differential Fill Plug what was needed to remove and install the Axles in the Differential was not hard an very straight forward.
The difficulty I had was getting the Axle Collasped enough and moving the parts around enough to go back into the Rear Hub Splined Hole. That problem might still be there with the Annular Axles.
