Default Power steering leak on 84 XJS

Under the car on the passenger side--the big unit with the rubber boots. It is leaking out on the passenger side.
I realize there must be seals in there.
Would anyone walk me thru this.
Kinda worried thanks for any help.

Someone might chime in with other ideas but "walking you thr"u this one, IMHO, means recommending that you install a rebuilt rack and pinion.

There are surely some successful cases of DIY rack re-sealing....it's just that I've never heard of any :-). Lots of failure stories out there, though!


Cheers
