I did the the cv boots last year. I have a 2003 S with 6 gears. I don't know if the construction differs to non S cars, auto transmission cars, or other MY.

We've put my car on a lift. One person pulled the lower arm down by hanging on it, another person pulled the brake/damper unit to the outside. And than i had enough room to get the axle in and out. Without minimum another person helping i would have never had the opportunity the get the axle in and out.

If you have no-one to help you, or your car is on jack stands i would recommend to remove the exhaust/cat. Else there is definetly not enough room if you have a 6 gear manual on a S model. With a 5 gear, or automatic transmission it may be different.

Regards from germany
Markus
