Well I was getting ready to do a routine oil change when I notice a puddle of oil under my car. I look closer and one of the steering rack boots is torn. Most of the fluid managed to leak out. My question is do I simply replace the boot or does the fact that it is leaking mean I have bad seals?

Was it oil or PS fluid?

If you take off the filter oil can drip down onto the rack. If its just oil from the change you can buy a new boot and slip it over. You just take off the tie rod. If you're slick enough you don't even have to realign it.
