I have one of the Astro Pneumatic CV Boot Installers but have never used it. It is difficult to measure the OD of the Axle when it is on the car but the Inside Diameter of the Cone does appear to be slightly smaller than the Axle so without some mod the Cone is not going to slide over the Axle CAN.
But if I remember correctly the OD of the Cone is slighly larger than the CAN on the Axle.

I finally got around to replacing My Boots and I also used the above Astropneumatic Cone. I used the Dorman Boots and the Clamps supplied with the Boots. I also used the proper Tool for the Boot Clamps and it was under $10 from a local Auto Parts Store.
