track rod?

how do i replace a track rod on the nearside on a Renault Laguna 54 plate diesel ?
baz, June 2008
crack wheel nuts
jack car up
put on axel stand
take wheel off
unbolt track rod end next to hub (you might need a wooden hammer to get it loose)
unscrew and count rotations to take it off. i'd gues about 30ish
then count the new one on and lock in into place
re-fit onto the back off the hub
try not to crush it when you tighten it but it needts to be tight.
put the wheel back on and shack it
lookm for any movement because it will fail on mot
i havn't done that car but... i guess it the same as older ones
hope i've helped
