remove wheel , remove hub nut , remove split pin and nut at bottom of strut ,split bottom ball joint, pull whishbone away to free strut, knock out the drift pin to the inner cv joint to remove shaft.
reverse order for refitting, easy peasy
iirc
what you replacing with , 2nd hand , recon , or new?

I also removed the track rod end, just gave a bit more movement to play with.
