I put all the grease into the boot and leave the joint dry. After I bolt the cv up to the axle stub/transaxle, I push the boot toward the joint and force the grease into it. It also seems to make the boots last longer too, coating the inside of them with CV grease.

This might be a silly question but I will be packing a CV joint for the first
time and there has to be a better trick than just stuffing the grease into it
and making a bloody mess. My CV/axle units arrive today and I didn't think
about packing it till now. So, is there an easy way? Thanks as usual.
