I recently replaced both boots on my axle. I was able to remove the three cv bearing assembly with a puller and a little heat. When reinstalling I put the shaft in the freezer and the bearing assembly in a 400 degree toaster oven. I also had a 1 1/4 X 8" piece of copper pipe on hand along with a sixteen ounce ball pein hammer. The bearings went about seventy percent of the way on and a little tap on the bearing ring bottomed it out with no stress on the shaft or bearing assembly. I did have to order new nuts for the hub side of the shaft as those multi piece affairs are a piece of junk and one time use only. My chassis number I believe is 1471, not sure and not home to check at this time.
