It's very easy. If you find any description of the job for any car it should help you.

For me the hardest part is swallowing the price of a full alignment just to re-set the toe on one wheel.

It's pretty damned easy - a whole lot easier witha lot of plusgas a day beforehand, and a proper ball joint splitter - a big hammer will make the job significantly harder!
