the socket looks like a 1 foot piece of pipe with a cap with a square on one end and the other end has a slot near the open end, you pop the horesshoe shaPED end into the slot that fits the hex on the end of the rack, they are over an inch in size

Download the service info from the link above, Toyota has step by step instructions. When you change tie rod ends use something to gage the old tie rod adjustment with the new one. You will then at least be close on alignment.
