off wheel with car jacked up etc

there's a bolt holding the stud from origianl track rod end, undo it and knock it out, dont tw@ it directly with a hammer, but pri bar etc

before unscrewing it which may be a ball ache, mark its current location with a bit of tape/tipex etc, as you need to put it back on as many turns as it came off etc

unscrew then replace in reverse order, sit back cup of tea happy days.

and go get allignment checked at garage, its free if its ok or 20-25 for full lazer allignment if off i believe.
