1) Get inner tie rod wrench.
2) Lift front end, remove wheel.
3) Pop outer tie rod end from steering knuckle. Measure length from center of tie rod end to base of inner tie rod. Remove outer tie rod end.
4) Remove clamp holding steering rack boot to steering rack. Slide off inner tie rod.
5) Bend back tabs of locking washer at base of inner tie rod. Using tool, unscrew inner tie rod from steering rack.
Assemble new tie rod, tighten (I think using loc-tite or another locking washer is ideal), etc.
