Hope I'm remembering correctly, it will come out without removing the boot. Of course you can apply grease easier at the u-joint if you remove the boot.

When you unbolt the final drive and pull it off the drive shaft will be attached.  You don't need to touch the boot

+1 and when you pul the shaft from the final drive just pull straight out on it, it don't feel like it will come out but just keep pulling straight out cooldude

dunno. Maybe one needs to be "friends" with Big BF on Facebook in order to access it. I'll work on getting it a different way. Maybe it's on YouTube.
