Default Need Help ASAP. Drive Shaft?

A friend and I are putting a Skunk2 coilover kit and ingall's camber kit on his 4thgen accord, and it seems that the drive shaft has pulled out of place from the inside of the cv boot, and we can not get it back in. Any ideas on what to do? We need to get this done ASAP. Thanks in advance.

only thing I can think of is too take the rings of the boots and realign the tri-pot back in the cup. remember to grease the hell out of it though.

Is it ok to take the boot off? I heard that once you take it off, you might as well replace it. I could be wrong. Thanks for the reply.

if you are going to rebuild it, it a lot less hassle to just buy one from Discount Auto parts or something, it comes out to like 55 bucks with the core trade in but its a lot less hassel. or if you look in the phone book, some axle places will rebuild it for about 30-45 bucks.

Ok, decided to take it in somewhere and have it put back together. It will be cheaper than buying a new axle, and I don't want to break anything. Thanks for the help.
