It is much cheaper to replace the CV shaft. Purchase a Haynes manual that is specific to your car.
the battery is in the boot on the right hand side. clever EH!!!!!
Replace the whole axel and save yourself alot of heartache. You can get them relatively cheaply after market.
remove the console, you should see some screws on the bottom of the boot, remove, replace boot, replace console

A CV boot is found on the axle of a vehicle. To replace the outer boot remove the axle bolt and pull the boot off. The inner boot requires removal of the whole axle.
you cannot just change the boot you will have to replace the whole axle
you go.... and replace it!
It is possible to replace the boot on a 1996 Mustang Cobra convertible with a boot from another year's model. However, the fit may not be perfect due to variations in design between different model years. It is recommended to check for compatibility and make any necessary modifications for a proper fit.
CV boot? Tierod boot? Ball joint boot? Driveshaft slip yoke boot? If its torn REPLACE it
It is cheaper to replace the CV shaft than it is to replace the boot. If the boot has been torn for any length of time it will have collected dirt and water. That in itself spells disaster.
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.
Don't bother trying to replace a torn boot on a half shaft. It is quicker, easier and cheaper to replace the whole half shaft.
