If you do just the boot, be careful how much grease you end up washing down your drain. I used degreaser to clean things up but still ended up with a plumbing bill! No doubt my house's 40-yr-old main drain was already suspect, but this project put it over the edge.
If I had to do it again I'd do the whole axle, despite the price. But do this only if you plan to keep the car awhile.
