It's not a simple answer. If you don't know what you are doing, you should take it in. You're gonna beat yourself up. You probably don't have the tools.

its really simple. you need to remove the tie rod from the knuckle(cotter pin and nut),knock the pin out of the axle with punch, remove the cotter pin from the axle nut, remove the axle nut, remove the knuckle from the control arm.(off the top of my head)
If you dont know what you are doing you should either take it somewhere to have it done or have someone who know what they are doing to show you how.
