Works good
2005 Ford Focus outer CV bootIt wasn’t as hard as everyone is saying to get the boot over the cone. I greased the cone and inside of the boot with silicone grease before I tried and it went right over with some force.Hardest part was getting the large end of the boot over the big knuckle on the crv joint without getting grease everywhere.You need a set of CV joint clamp pliers, they aren’t included in the kit.

Works great! There is a trick to install the boot.
Here is what worked for me:I need to replace the outer boots so I kept the axles on the carKey: keep you hands grease free!1) Position the axle so that you can put force on it and the axle won't move. This keeps you from getting injured.2) Take the boot and turn it inside out3) Spray inside the boot with cooking spray. Do NOT spray the outside of the boot or your hands. Set it down on a clean surface.4) With your hand inside the cone spray the outside of the cone with the cooking spray.5) With dry clean rag place the cone on the axle6) With your clean dry hands push the boot over the cone. If your hands are not clean and dry use a dry shop towel around the boot.7) Once the boot is over the cone. Remove the cone.8) Reverse the cv boot by pushing it inside out. Keep in mind that the narrow portion needs to be out all way even though it may not look that way.

Not Easy To Install
The Flex Boot Kit was delivered quickly and ahead of schedule. The rubber feels lighter than the original boot, but It must be to get it over the cone. Being more flexible may make it less prone to cracking, time will tell. I first saw this Flex Boot in a Youtube video. The installer had modified the cone, they had some kind of wood dowel sticking out of the cone to make it easier to control. I weigh 230 pounds and have been a mechanic for 45 years and sliding the boot over the cone was a bear.The cone and the boot must be thoroughly lubed with oil. My first try I got it half way up the cone and the boot stuck. Since I turned it inside out, I had to start with the large end first so when I got it on and pulled it right side out, the small end would be on the small diameter inside shaft. if you don't plan well, or think this through, and get it on reversed, you will probably end up cutting the boot off, or taking the shaft apart to save the boot. If you get it reversed, you will never pull it off over the casting. Before I started working it over the cone, I folded the large end back a couple inches on its self so I would have something to hang on to while pulling it over the cone. It felt like I might tear it pulling so hard on the end, but it is sturdy enough that it held up and I got it on. I suggest you find the video on Youtube and watch it once or twice before attempting installation. Things you will need to finish this job are oil, paper towels, brake cleaner, rubber gloves, banding pliers, and brute strength,. This is not an easy job!

1998 f 150 use furniture polish READ
I put furniture polish on the cone or funnel to slip the boot over to put it on the CV axle the furniture polish worked better than anything to accomplish this and it was not easy but it did work. I ended up cutting my calm down so that it would not have to stretch as much over the end so that it would fit on the end of my CV joint better once I got it on I took the clamps and use angle cutting pliers after I snug the clamps down as tight as I can get them with my hand and cramped it or that it would not come back loose I was careful not to cut the clamp. This was the best option for me. If you don't want to use the funnel then you could try to knock the snap ring loose off the end of the CV joint you can YouTube this but unfortunately one of mine would not break loose.
