If you need to replace a boot because it is torn I
would think of the joints are questionable and do a
full CVC joint service of the axle. 90% of the work
has to be done just to swap out the boots, so you
might as well get down and dirty (very dirty) and do
the whole job.

First of all, you should have the Bentley, just for
guidance and pictures. To get an overall introduction
to the process, though this is discussing the rears,
see: http://volksweb.relitech.com/cvjoints.htm .

Then, you can get all of the details at
https://www.van-cafe.com/vanagonparts.jsp?pa=ip&ip=1150562894
which has extensive detail, so much that it might seem
scary. Syncro details are down toward the bottom.
