How to Remove the CV Boot on Alfa Romeo 147

Model: Alfa Romeo 147 MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Axle shaft

Let's see how to remove the boot from a joint on an Alfa Romeo 147. Position your car on a column lift: raise it to a comfortable height to work on, then loosen the wheel nuts (using a socket wrench or air drill) and remove the wheel. Next, begin to unscrew the brake disc bolts with a socket wrench. Remove the bolts located under the disc and completely detach the wheel hub. Pull the arm around the joint with your hands. Fit the new boot (after removing the old one) onto the constant velocity joint, then start reassembling all the parts in reverse order.
