Default Steering Assembly Question (Leaking)

I'm loosing a quart per day, or 1 drop per second from the left side of my car.

The drip is coming from the boot at the end of the steering assembly.

To replace will be a nightmere...

Is there any way to repair the seal on the drivers-side end of the steering assembly?


Thanks!

I have not seen any repair kits for seals as of yet for the steering racks.

I think you will have to replace the rack or maybe try some stop leak. It will not make the leak go away, but it may slow it down.
