1999 Mercury Sable Front Wheel Drive Automatic

I'm looking to replace the inner tie rod ends on my 99 mercury sable. I was going to replace the complete rack and pinion but it's not available, so my question is how to replace the inner tie rod ends. The service manual really don't explain the process all that well.
