  2. The opposite -- feed the whole boot over the transmission rod first... but I still run into the issue of working that TINY hole around the linkage.



Am I missing something?


No, you got it. I promise that the boot does stretch and there is enough room to work it from either end. You just have to struggle with it.

You may want to get a hair dryer to heat the rubber up too. That may make it a bit more pliable and stretchy.
