Never worked on this particular model but in generall racks are all the same to replace . Drain the power steering fluid firstly. Remove the nuts from the tapers of the trackrod ends which secure the trackrods to the steering arms on the rear of the stub axles if you have a balljoint splitter use that to remove the trackrod end tapers from the stub axles if not hit the side of the steering arm where the tapers are fitted through them several times hard with a hammer and this should seperate them . Then lock the steering wheel in the straight ahead position and remove the pinchbolt from the universal joint on the steering column which attaches it to the steering rack knockit off its spline with apunch and hammer then undo the bolts through the steering rack which attach it to the vehicle.Then manouvre it out from the vehicle ,place the rack in a vise undo the locking nuts  from the back of the trackrods 1/2 aturn then screw off the trackrods counting each turn until the trackrods are free so that you know how far to screw your new trackrods on your replacement rack. Please note the vehicle will need to be raised off the ground and secured either on a ramp or on axle stands before you attempt to undertake this work . Refit in reverse order that you removed the rack making sure that all fastenings are secure and tight in their corrct places.
