Does anyone know how to change an axle boot on the rear of the P5? I havent had chance to look at it yet to see for myself to how difficult it is,but i can't imagine it's to bad.

It isn't to hard but it's aggravating. You just got to get in there and do it. I took the knuckle off it makes it a little easier. You need a good pair of them clip removers it took me forever to get one of them clips out. Make sure you have a clean surface and its flat to work on too.
different youtube videos is how i did mine.

The nut that holds my hub on and allows me to access my axle will not budge. Is this a lefty loosy?
