use a set of vice grips on the rubber boot, pretty much, if your replacing them, cut the boot, take the grease out, clamp down the vicegrips as much as possible, put some heat on the nut and take it off. Its a pain in the ass, but it works. Theres a write up that Dustin *Batman72* did on the site using that method
