half shaft/cv boot repair

[FlagstaffSVX]

I was just wondering if there were going to be any suprises when I try to replace my half-shaft and do the boots. I really wish I had a manual but right now rent is really kicking my butt and it's hard enough just affording these parts. Has anyone out there who's owned multiple SVXes found that some are more troublesome than others? I'm getting to the point where I think it might be easier to sell mine now and get a different one later.
Anyway, enough rambling...

As always, thanks for any info, this forum is a really great place to 'hang out' because everyone is always so ready to pitch in and help out.
