ae82 cv boot replacement

Hey,
I am trying to replace the split outer CV boots on my car. I now know why the boots are $45 and the new CVs are $300, the job of replacing the shaft is much easier than the boot!
I have pulled the shaft out of the hub and taken (OK cut) the old boot off. I can see all the bearings etc in the joint. I cant work out how to put the narrow end of the boot on because I cant work out how to pull the joint appart.
Am I looking for a circlip or something in the joint?
Does anyone have an exploded diagram of a rolla CV?
Or can quickly explain what to do next?
While I start the other side!!

thank you,
I took the inner off / appart and there was the circlip!
knock the inner bearings off the shaft, slide old boots off, new boots on, regrease, reassemble.
done!
