the standard type kits are much the same but dont get the lightweight stretchy boots which they say can be fitted without dismantalling. You need a special tool to do that and they do not stand up to foreign objects stabbing them. Grease is included in the boot kit.

https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-pa ... 738898.htm have just done both inner and outer boots on left side. about 20minutes whole job. not sure how well they will hold under extreme off roading. but for price and time saved. idea to have a spare in your tool box.

if using off road they will not last. however the idea of a spare is tempting

Was able to replace 4 front cv boots by disconnectng steering tie rod and bottom joint's 4 bolts, so only needed to separate the steering ball joint.
