    power steering help.

    Alright so my car is going through power steering fluid like it is going out of style. It started about a week ago and it was not that bad. Then 3 days ago it is gushing out the bottom onto the ground. So, today I decided to check it out and basically the, driver side tie rod boot, when you squeeze even lightly the fluid flies out:letitout:. So my question for you guys is, do you think I can get away with just replacing the tie rod assembly and boot? or is it something else entirely?

    Any help is appreciated.:razz:

    The rack seals have blown...

    Not good news...

    Replace the rack.

    Then change the fluid like every 5K
