PIA

did mine a few weeks back, difficult to get at, we managed with it up on the ramps and lowering the subframe and letting it hang front the wishbones still attached to the car, trouble is you can't get force onto the inner joint to un-screw from the rack then if the subframe is loose.

I'd imagine dropping the whole subframe is easier, but then you'd need to disconnect and drain the rack unless you can get all the hoses and pump off in one go.

My track rods were FEBI ones from AVS http://www.vwspares.co.uk/ and seemed good quality, IRO 20 quid each. new boots are advisable too.
