    the rubber boot it self "shouldnt" be a problem for your steering, Fix it up though it stops crud getting into the joint.

    when does it pull to the right? all the time or under braking?

    any where like bursons, repco, supercheap.

    not hard to change just a matter of taking the tierod end off
    have to get another wheel alignment though
