Was just driving tonight and heard a slight squeal when i turned, thought it was just low on power steering fluid. All of a sudden it gets harder to turn, then no power steering, so i pulled off into a gas station and...
crap...
was able to get it home but didnt take much of a look because its too dark. but im guessing the seal blew, when i first pulled over the boots both looked like that first pic and they felt full of air. i tried putting some more fluid in(had some with me) but once i started turning it began to spew out of that one boot.(that last pic)
So my question is, how hard is it to replace the seal, anyone ever done it? or would it be better to just replace the whole thing($$$...)?
