In all honesty if the boot is torn and any amount of grease has been spilled then you should really consider replacing the joint due to contamination. with the advent of cv rebuilding shops popping up you can usually get a complete axle with inner and outer joints new boots and shaft for less than 150 bucks. I would go that route if it was mine. to remove the axle you will need to have the vehicle with jack stands on front then you need to remove the cotter pin and castellated keeper (the part that looks like a crown) remove the nut behind it. this can require alot if force. once it is removed you will need to remove the 2 strut bolts on spindle if one has an accentric be certain to mark its position before removing it. be certain to protect the threads by reinstalling the large nut previously removed back on until near flush. using a punch or brass drift drive the axle out of the hub assy. last part is to get a pry bar in between the trans case and the axle shaft. this is the r/s you may have an extension shaft or bearing on shaft that needs to be unbolted from engine block some models shorten the shaft and it ends at bearing with that type you would need to just pop it off in front of bearing using same pry bar method. this holds true to more than half of all cv axle shafts.
