Steering rack (centering) 200

Hello All,

I'm installing a rebuilt rack and need to know the best way to tell if it is centered. My theory is measure from the back edge of the boot, I'm call the back edge the large end that is fixed to the rack. Measure from there to the end of the tie rod, when those are equal that should be centered. Then make whatever adjustment is needed to get the pinion flat to the point it needs to be. Does this sound reasonable?
