Squeaky front end

Squeaky front end
Hi there,
I've noticed that when I turn my car, the front end has a pretty bad squeaking to it. I've replaced pretty much everything related to steering such as the inner and outer tie rods, sway bar links, and I think I also had my brakes done.
When I removed the boot to pull the axle out of the transmission, there was quite a lot of fluid in it. My guess is that I have a seal leak in the rack & pinion? This is something I really know nothing about. Is this basically one of those jobs where it's just easier to replace the rack and pinion than try and replace it? Anything else that might make it squeak ?
Thanks,
Nigel
