Simple facts in changing rack and pinion boots

The ones that protect the internal seals from becoming damaged by debris are the rack pinion boots or otherwise known as bellows. Most probably, when these bellows break, it is very vital to replace them before damage is done to the rack. Fixing the rack pinion boots in a timely manner can save you hundreds of dollars in repair bills to replace them itself. These are the things you merely need; ratchet, socket set, combination wrench set, needle nosed pliers, side cutters, floor jack, jack stands, and marking paint.

These are the steps that you need to follow; jack up the front of your vehicle and secure it with jack stands, locate the steering rack near the firewall of the vehicle, directly in line with the front wheels, it is roughly 3 to 4 feet long and made of aluminum, follow the steering rack to the ends and you will see plastic covers that have an accordion-like design, clip off the metal retainers on each end of the bellows using side cutters, follow the rack farther out and you will come to the outer tie rod end, a metal object that is shaped like an “L” and connects to the front spindle, remove the cotter pin at the base of the tie rod end, using the side cutters to straighten the pin and pull it out, loosen and remove the nut holding the tie rod end and press the tie rod end up until it is out of the hole it was in, loosen the lock nut on the other side of the tie rod end and paint a line where the outer tie rod end meets the other, spin the outer tie rod end until it is free from the other, remove the rack bellow by pulling it, by hand, off the rack, place the new bellow on the inner tie rod end and slide it until the wide end slides over the rack, place the included tie straps around the thick and thin ends of the bellow and twist it, using the pliers, until it is tight, spin the outer tie rod end back onto the inner one until it meets the white line, place the tie rod end stud back into the hole on the spindle where it came out of, put the tie rod end nut in place and tighten it until it is snug, using a ratchet and socket, push the cotter pin back through the hole in the tie rod end stud, bend the ends of the cotter pin in opposite directions to secure it, using the side cutters, turn the lock nut on the inner tie rod end until it meets the outer one, tighten it down using a wrench, and lower the vehicle from the jack.
