Default steering rack

Hello,
I am installing turbo tie rods and noticed oil in the old boot when it came off. Problem?

It works great, no clunking, smooth, what do you think?

Thanks...

sounds like the seals in the end of the rack may be toast, you can either take it all out now . or just put your new tie rods in and when you notice more issues or when its more conveinient look at it then.

i just happened to bo looking at excellence this morning , i think Zims has some remaned racks at reasonable prices.
