Are you replacing the whole axle? (easiest and probably best) If so then there is no need for the boot, grease and seals. The new axle will have all that. Replacing just the boot on a torn C/V joint boot doesn't make any sense, since odds are the bearings/cage are already worn. Replacing the CV joint doesn't make much sense either since it is more work and doesn't save much $$ over just buying a new axle. A rebuilt axle from autozone runs ~$65 and can be swapped in about 30 minutes.
