    Some lift, some armor, some scratches..
    Just did LBJs and CVs for the first time myself this weekend.. It's pretty straight forward just take your time. I found that a Cat's paw and a big hammer worked great to pry the CVs loose.
    I followed this how-to http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/maintenance/cv_axle/

    Not even sure it's worth rebuilding a CV by the time you take into account the parts needed plus a boot kit & labor you'd be better off just buying a reman. CV. Unless your bored & just wanted to rebuild one so you know how they go together...
