Ok, just to clarify, this is all that's really required:

THIS IS ANOTHER METHOD OF REMOVING AXLE SHAFT .SHOWN ON THE LAST 2 PICS . YOU STILL NEED TO REMOVE BRAKE CALLIPER AND STRUT BOLTS .
if you can not remove axle nut you can leave it on and remove the inner cv joint . once you remove the large clamp band the joint will pull out of cup easily . remove circlip . remove triple roller bearing . remove boot . you can then remove and replace the outer boot by sliding it along the shaft . or remove shaft leaving outer cv joint in hub if you need to clean it .
.
So basically unbolt the spindle from the strut, cut the boot off the CV, remove the circlip, roller bearing, slide the boot off, replace boot, replace roller bearing, swing spindle back into place, reinstall circlip, strap new boot on, and then rebolt the strut back to the spindle. Is that correct?
