Bellows Boot (On Steering Rack)--HELP!!!!

Does anyone know where I can purchase split type bellows boots for the steering rack on my '89 Nissan Maxima? Everyone i've called has the solid boot which requires taking apart the whole steering assembly and i dont have the facilities to do so. The mechanics ive talked to want around $200-$300 for this, but it'd be great if i could do this for under $30 in my driveway. Im in college and sort of struggling with cash..PLEASE HELP!!

you only have to onbolt the tie rod to replace the boot. it's not that bad. IMO no special tools needed. get alignment after you're done and you're good to go.
