   Second one from the bottom, come as a pair, simple to swap:
   
   Track rod end out of the strut
   Unscrew TRE
   Unscrew arm
   
   Refitting is the reverse of removal. Just don't forget to get your tracking checked after.

    They both unscrew fairly easily with a decent set of grips and spanners. A vice is preferable for realy stuck ones.
