Ensure the Vehicle is safely supported off the ground, and using a floor jack at the back of the subframe, to support the subframe, remove both bolts that hold the subframe in at rear of the subframe, then slowly And carefully lower the subframe down. If you have not already done so, remove both stablizer bar link kits from the lower control Arms, and also remove the lower intermediate shaft from the steering gear. Then make sure the lines are both off of the gear and the gear to sub frame bolts are removed, And the tie rod ends are separated from the steering knuckle on both sides. Rotate the gear forward so the stub shaft at the top of the gear faces the front of the car laying downward toward the subframe. This will allow you to slide the gear outward through the wheel well opening on the left side. reverse the procedure to install, and fill P/S reservoir with P/S fluid and manually turn the steering wheel stop to stop 22 times, with the vehicle off Not Running!!
Then set toe and you should be good to go!
