Yep, had to take the wheel off first. Then loosen the three bolts that hold the fork tubes in the triple clamps so the tubes slipped out. Then greased up the inside of the boots with wd-40 ( probably should have used liquid soap) and just slipped the boots over the top of the shock and down to the bottom. This will protect the shock tubes from rocks and dirt. I left the bottom of the boot loose so I could pull it up to clean it if necessary. I'll edit this post with pictures soon. Sorry my flash crapped out on me...
