The axles come out of the tranny very easily, so if I was going to go through the hassle of taking the wheel hub off to get to the axle, I would just do the entire axle. As for doing both sides, I would just do the side with the bad boot.

Agreed. Pulling them out of the trans is easier than getting them out of the hub.

One thing to watch when pulling and installing the axles into the trans, be very careful with the seal. The splines on the axle, particularly in the area of the spring clip, can damage it. Pull them out straight, and put them in straight. I put a little bit of white lithium grease on the seal and the splines.
