Steering rack boot
While changing my front brakes, I noticed that the steering rack boot on the passenger side was torn. My question is should I just replace the boot, or does it require more? Would leaving it be a issue?

The boot's torn, replace it.
Pop the tie rod off the hub, unscrew the tie rod end.
Keep count of the # of turns it takes to gt it off. Put it back on in the exact same location so your alignment stays.
Pretty simple job and the boot is like 8 bucks.
