Rear CV boot replacement - help

[ACROWE]

Can anyone tell me how easy it is to replace the rear cv joint boot (nearest the hub) on the passenger side?
Does anyone know the part number for the boot, I assume it is not a Noble only part?

Are there any other parts I am likely to need, such as a new hub nut etc?

Cheers
Andy

Andy,
The CV joint is all part of the drive shaft, it's a Ford part. LH 1023211, RH 1023213.

Thanks Kevin,

I assume the boot is available separately?

Not sure you will need to speak to Ford, personally l wouldn't bother if the boot is split l would replace the whole drive shaft due to possible damage and lots of power going through a standard joint !

I agree with Kevin if the gaiter has been split for a while then you will have an ingress of dirt which might have compromised the the strength of the joint and with all that power it only a matter of time .Ian

Apparently the driveshaft costs £425.75 + vat, and the boot (including new clips and grease, part No. 1073937) is £10.27. I know which one I will be trying first.
