I got one set on but the other (right front) is killing me. does anyone know any little tricks to make it easier. I have the stupid little tool that comes with them, the on that looks like a socket with a slit cut in it. I'm sure there is something I'm missing. I guess I just got lucky with the other side.

Thanks

 

got anyu pictures of what your doing and the tool?

 

sounds like the tool for the aftermarket strap tightener.

 

look here... this looks he is using regular pliers

 

Its looks pretty easy in the video, I guess I will just have to keep trying. I dont know how to post pictures on here or I would.

 

My clamps were not that easy. That video is very deceiving. I had a removal tool and the force needed to take them off or put them on sheared the ears right off. Ended up having to use a different type of clamp since the dealer doesn't sell just a replacement clamp.

 

that was just a video i remember seeing, i have yet to change a boot so im sorry i cant help more..

 

I use cv pliers with SMALL PINCHER tips,easy to install clamps! Most auto stores have them. about $28

 

The small Pincher pliers work well I have ones with spring loaded so really easy....

 

Just went through this on my 700. long handled needle nose did the trick.
