I Had to do one the other day on a works van so will answer this while its fresh in my mind..it did take me about 2 and a half hours to remove it but it went back in fairly easy...
1. Raise the front of the vehicle on wheel ramps and then jack up further and remove the ramps use axle stands under the rear of the sub-frame mounts i did this to allow plenty of room to move around underneath
2.Remove both front wheels
3. Remove tie rod ball joints from the hubs with a ball joint splitter of your choice , undo pinch bolts on the other end of the tie rods and remove them completely from the rack ends..
4. Remove the pinch bolt on the input shaft, it's a self locking bolt so only needs a 13mm ratchet spanner on the nut to remove it..
5. Remove the bottom torque link between the subframe and the engine/driveshaft bracket..this allows the engine to swing out of the way
6. remove the Power Steering fluid pipes and drain into a suitable container..(good time to get a coffee while this is draining)
7. Remove the 4 bolts holding the rack to the subframe and it should now come free, move the rack to the passenger side and forward, it should drop down, you may now have to move the engine forward for it to allow the rack to drop down past the shaft and it should come free with a little swearing and gnashing of teeth...
And as most manuals say 'Fitting is the reverse of removal'
