Got under the car this morning and found that I still need several tools and parts beside the cv boot kit from Pelican. Took off and got some tools, found that I don't have any Schnoor washers ahhhh, another week or 2 drving with torn boots to order the Schnoor washers? Maybe I can find some at an auto part store? Can some one tell me what size I need, and how many?
Also several more question.. I am reading several instruction and still not clear. When I got under the car, I can see clearly several bolts on on the inner side (the transmission) but there is no bolts on the outter side (the wheel side). How can I take the axcle off without seeing any bolts? Look at this pic, below. Mine look the same as this pic. You can see there is no bolts at all.

Is it correct that I don't need to do anything on the wheel-side beside taking off the axcle big nut? This biggo one, on the center..

Also,
rcecale mentioned using the hydraulic press to press the axles aprt. Must I have the press to replace my CV boot? I don't want to take everything apart and realize that I have to put everything back because I don't have a press.
Another question:
When puting things back, what is the torque on:
- the lower shock bolt?
- the axcle nut?
- I know I need 63 lbs on the cv bolts (to the transmission side)
Thanks guys
