CV Boot, there are kits which do not require the shaft to be removed, you can clamp a new one in. I recommend getting a used shaft in fair condtion at a local junk yard.

Remove the bearing bolt, tap it out with a brass hammer gently, then with a pry bar, remove the entire shaft by prying it. Have bucket ready ; all the trans fluid will leak out, now it's the time to replace the trans seal (if needed). The install: pop the shaft into the tranny, then the other end to the wheel bearing, and torque the bolt. Refill the trans with new fluid.
