Thanks guys for all your help so far, the car should be on the road soon. Today I was throwing on some new suspension and I noticed a pretty steady drip coming from the driver side of the steering rack from a torn boot. Both sides have a torn boot. Im going to replace the rack but I was wondering what all racks might be interchangeable. I believe theres some pretty new subarus in my local jy. I have a 98 impreza outback sport btw.

Thanks!

Go to car-part.com. Input your info and it will give parts that are compatible.

If it was me, I'd either just put more lube in there and close up the ends, or replace the boots. Latter will probably require an alignment afterwards.
