The shockcord in the boom is bridle so I need to replace all the lines in the boom can I do it without removing the end cap?
No. You must remove the aft endcap to replace the outhaul shock cord. You also must remove the outhaul cleat since the bungee cord ties off on the internal mounting bracket for the outhaul cleat.
Removing the end cap is real easy. Just remove the two rivets and it should pull right off. Be careful not to lose the rollers and axles on the outhaul car when you pull the car out. If the boat has been sailed in salt water, the screws for the outhaul cleat may be frozen.
