Hi, about 3 1/2 years ago & 90K+ miles the local dealer told my wife we needed a steering rack replacement. They told her it would be about $950. I checked it out when my wife got home and all I could find was a loose driver side inner tie rod and a loose passenger side outer tie rod. I replaced those items, saved $900+ got an alignment and have yet to see any more bad rack symptoms. If all is tight on your's I would just replace the torn boot and outer ties. Good luck.
