tie rod replacement? S70 1998

so firestone told me after they aligned my wheels that my left tie-rod is loose, preventing them from properly aligning my left front end. they got it as close as possible, but also quoted a replacement at $280.

Now, I've done strut/spreing replacements on my older VW's, and am cuious if the tie-rod replacement is a complex deal. My manual (chilton - I know, pretty pathetic) covers everything but the tie-rod replacement. Although I see from some of the overall photos where it is and how to get at them.

Anyone done this procedure before?

Thanks in advance.
