Lifespans and difficulty are general. They vary with the engine, trim, driving and climate, and your owner's manual and a qualified mechanic should have the final say.
Before you buy
A complete axle is usually easier than replacing the boot. Match the left or right side and the transmission type.
Confirm the part fits your exact 2000 Ford Explorer by checking your VIN, engine size and trim with the seller. The Explorer was sold with different options across the 2000 model year, and a part that fits one build may not fit another.
