2 x 19mm spanners or 17mm its one of them sizes anyway, crack them off make sure you count the amount of full turns when you un-screw,so when you put them back on it doesnt knock tracking out.proberly one of the easier jobs on a scoobie,done it a few times on them
thanks

Track rod end off, nut off, steering boot off. Knock the tabs back that cover the nut on the steering arm, undo the arm (these can be bloody tight) apply thread lock to the new one (it will also have a new lock tab washer with it) screw it in, tighten it up, bend the tabs over & re fit the steering boot, nut & track rod end with the correct amount of turns. Double check everything's tight, put the wheel on & torque the nuts up.
