I think (but could be wrong) the SPF uses a very similar set up as the FFR.

On my FFR, I've replaced the boots more than once (what a mess). I remove the spindles and axles as one unit. I don't remove the axles from the hub. The hub nut is a one time use only, and the torque spec is 250 ft/lbs.

The inner CV joint just slides apart, leaving the outer jhoint and axle attached to the spindle. It's a simple matter of replacing the boots over the axle.
