And yes, not having to touch the inner boot/joint at all would be a huge benefit, since it seems the inner boots last relatively forever, vs. the outer boots.
It would have been great for me to find this before doing the job just now, but you know, buried in 38 pages of other stuff ... But now I know.

So is there no need to remove the c-ring before providing a hit with the hammer?
Also how do you get the c-ring back on?
