I've done this job in 2 ways (on 2 different cars). On my tip I dropped out the cats and other things in the way, in order to lower the inner joints. These cv joints need to be removed (good time to check them for scoring and repack the grease). Then it's just clip the bands, slide off/on the new boots and clamps, and put it back together, torque to spec.
The 2nd car was done when I changed the rear struts. For this you need to undo the inner suspension arms and will require an alignment afterwards. Use this method only if you are replacing other suspension parts.
