Well that's a couple of firsts for me today. No way the 36mm nut on the driveshaft was moving, so an excuse to buy a hefty impact wrench which did the job easily. Made sure my good lady was stood on the brake pedal to avoid the stress going to the gearbox mind. In the past when changing CV boots I've always pulled the joints apart, but this time opted to try a stretch boot which I'm pleased say went on far more easily than I imagined it would. Happy days, my R is back on the road, and maybe I can start working on the more cosmetic bits now.
