Is it normal for the boot ends to go bad causing it to leak fluid and become contaminated?



As you can see the fluid has become contaminated...


Apparently, Part #3 is the clip that suppose to be holding the boot still and stretch.... which in my case isn't happening

my driver side boot is also ripped i wonder how much the boot cost and how hard the install is. I dont have power steering tho

this happened to me too... it got contaminated enough that i needed to replace the entire rack. unfortunately i was out of town at the time so i had to take it to a shop to get it done, they overcharged me and then it started leaking a few weeks later (DONT GOTO TIRES PLUS IN MIAMI! ) i ended up just converting to manual steering.

I wanted to convert as well, just seems like it would have save the hassle. Only thing is, it's a real bi getting it out when you actually have the engine and shi in the car, at least that's what I imagine. I pulled it from my old GSR and it was a pain getting under the dash (with it already removed) to fiddle with it, even with the engine out. Never again-- I'm lying, I'll do it again soon and I'll hate that too.

Does anyone have pictures of how GOOD power steering boots look installed unlike mine?

Also, anyone know how to flush out the old power steering fluid?
