I thought the power steering was going out. But the rubber boots on the steering shaft down by the rack and pinion have disintegrated on my 95 Explorer. A quick call to my Ford dealer "no longer available” and he said $500 when it was available. The rubber boots themselves were never available. You'll see in the photos the replacement shaft rubber boots are bad. The steering boots From the outer ends of the rack and pinion, available for approximately $6 will stretch over. I used a piece of PVC pipe cut at a 45° angle to slip over the caller above the knuckle to attach the rubber boot with the hose clamp. There was a little whole that a breathing tube hooks onto down on the rack I just filled with silicone. /Users/JohnsPlace/Desktop/100_9699.jpg Whoops don't know how to insert pics when I drag them over for my desktop all I get is some writing./Users/JohnsPlace/Desktop/100_9701.jpg
