the drama ive got is now that its all hanging down i think the cv's have come out, anyone know if i need to remove the boots to ensure everything is tickety boo in there or wha??
Yes just undoing the top ball joint can let everything hang down and pull the CV bearings out of the slots.

try lift the hub back up and if the axel and everything slides nicely then its sweet.

If when you try to lift it up it just locks and you can't lift anymore, then the CV's are jammed and you will have to take the boot off
