Did mine the other day. used some soap and water and stretched it over the bar pin. pain in the butt but got it without ripping the boots.

I personally never run shock boots anymore. They can actually trap dirt in them and that could lead to shock damage.
I would say leave them off and problem is solved.

I used a vice to push the bar pin out. Slide the boot on and press the bar pin back in with the vice. You might be able to use a c clamp.
