I just did my cv boots today. Check youtube. Plenty of general videos there. You shouldnt need to change the IWE's out unless you are having problems (grinding noise) but you will need to unbolt them to get the axles out. If you are just swapping axles, thats not too bad of a job. How mechanically inclined are you? you will need to be able take the brakes off, lines and sensor loose and pop the tie rod and upper ball joint loose to get the axles out. Once you get them loose and get the end of the axle out of the hub, try using a heel bar to pop the inner cv out of the front diff. The passenger side is a little harder to get loose, I actually used an old shovel handle to feed through the skid plate to reach the inner cv and hit it with a big hammer from the drivers side to pop it out.
Hope this helps
