Another believer in the "inside out" method!
I have in the past be able to release the clip on the outside (with much finagling).
Since I am a proponent of changing both inside and outside boots if your going through the trouble and since I caught my rip early, (mine ripped close to the narrow end and a zip tie bought be a couple of days). I dropped the lower control arm, cut the straps and pulled out the triple roller. Hardest part was finding the holes in the retaining ring.
Re-read this whole post before starting, VERY confused - I dropped the LOWER control arm (the straight one) I understand Bentley as saying this can be torqued on the jack and that its the UPPER, curved control arm that needs to be torqued on the ground????
outer boot fail at 60K and almost to the date 4 years.
