old post but wanted to add.
I was very pleased with using the Dorman Uniboot (614-004) from Autozone.($20)
CV joint still good. No need to pull the axle of car.
Instead of buying the Dorman cone or air tool.....
I bought a large tranny funnel which I trim 2 inches off the wide cone end, and slotted the perimeter to allow the end to flex down as the boot slips past.
Lubed up the funnel with olive oil and coated the inverted boot....
Slide the boot down over the funnel so the wide end of boot overhangs the funnel end...so as to grab it as you push it off the funnel...
Put the wide end of the funnel with boot over the drive axle CV.....and pushed.
All on, re greased and clamped and trim excess boot away. Reinstall spindle and torsion rod nut and lower control arm bolt.
Happy
