Determine which Axles you have. The Annular Axles are easier to re-boot and you can use the Stock type of Boots if you want to.
You cannot use the Stock Boots on the Homokinetic Axles unless you have a Hydraulic press to take them appart.

You'll not be able to stretch the original thick boots with either a boot gun or a funnel. There are flex boots for this. Apparently in the US Astoria 3001 boots are the ones to buy. Read more here =>
