Outer CV boot '86 KC 4x4

[MaddieCycle]

Hello.  3 of my 4 boots are somehow in perfect shape.  The passenger side outer boot is showing some cracking, but not full thickness so no contamination (yet).  I have no interest in pulling the CV axle, dealing with the locking hubs, and then going through the hassle of rebooting this thing, which I believe requires a hydraulic press, and want to avoid the Russian Roulette of replacing the whole thing with an aftermarket axle.

 

Has anyone had luck putting those split boots onto one of these trucks? The "universal" sizing means they are sometimes a bit bulky and rub against suspension components in cramped quarters.

 

Thanks in advance.
