Subject: [GMCnet] Bob Drewes' outer CV boot replacement technique

Bob Drewes had posted about his technique for cutting away the outer CV boot and removing the split ring to allow the axle shaft to slide out of the
outer CV so a new boot could be put on without removing the axle or disturbing the output shaft bolts or outer spindle nut.

Last Fall I tried to do that on my 1 ton without success, and I ended up removing the half shaft. Does anyone know if Bob's technique works on 1 ton
front ends, or only on OEM?
