You can get a kit that has the boot that is open and has new greese that has screws and nuts to put it together. All you do is clean out the old shaft bearing and install the greese and then install the boot. Also Mighty has a kit that if you have the axle removed, you clean out the bearing and install the greese and stretch the boot over the carrior. This works better but takes more time.

What do you do if the axle shaft came out while replacing a lower right ball joint on a 1992 Cavalier?
If it came out of the transmission, just plug it back in, no harm done. If the boot came apart, then you will have to take the rest of the shaft out of the transmission, get a new boot, grease up the tripod assembly, and put it back together with clamps, or you will have to trade it in on a rebuilt shaft. A rebuilt shaft depending on the make cost's around $60.00 after the core exchange.
How do you replace a cv joint in a Mazda 3?
During an alignment job my shop melted my cv boot while heating the tie rod end for adustment. Because something is pressed on, they ordered the entire shaft. Mazda dealers would not sell them a boot and because their policy is to not farm out any work, ordering the shaft cost them more money than sending the car to Mazda to change the boot. This was the passenger side shaft. Hope this helps.

the boot you can tell with a visual inspection. there should be no tears in the boot. the boot is there to keep grease in and debris out. if the boot is torn and most of the grease is gone you probably should replace the shaft. if you catch it soon enough though you can just replace the boot which is much cheaper.
