How'd You Install Your New Throttle Boot?

[dkd021]

I was trying to put my throttle boot on tonight & tore it. I was trying to slide it over the ball when it tore. I wasn't using any silicone, it was dry. I've heard that the end may come off & you could put it back on but I didn't see how & didn't want to try & figure it out. I've got another new one around somewhere but for $10 I'll just order another one rather than looking for it.

The accelerator pedal side unscrews. First remove the linkage from the car, then loosen the locknut and count the turns it takes to remove the accelerator side ball socket so the length does not change when you put it back toghether.
