This is a big job requiring the use of a press to remove and install the bearing. I have done this in my own garage, taking the hub out to a local garage for the press work. However, since you are asking here, you should have the whole job done by a mechanic that you trust. It is a big job. --Ken

To replace a CV boot on a 2002 Subaru Forester, first, lift the vehicle and remove the wheel. Then, detach the axle from the hub and slide it out of the transmission. Remove the old CV boot clamps, clean the joint, and apply new grease before fitting the new boot. Finally, secure the boot with new clamps, reassemble the axle, and reinstall the wheel.
Go to the auto parts store and get a manual for your Forester, like the Haynes. It has a full description of how to do the job. After reviewing the procedure, if you think that your skill level is up to the task, have at it. Otherwise, take it to a professional. --Ken
