[s-cars] CV joint boot ripped

[Paul Heneghan]

Hello chaps,

My annual inspection has just shown that I've got a split CV joint boot
(front left outer).  I presume the replacement method is the same as on
the old 100 (5000 in the US).  I can't remember how much of the
suspension I've got to dismantle - do I need to disconnect the anti-roll
bar (sway bar in the US) and the tie rod and the lower control arm?  I
remember years ago on a VW Passat being able to remove the drive shaft
without disconecting any of those things.

Should I replace the hub nut (or is it a bolt these day?).

I'd be grateful for any BTDTs.

Paul
