Assuming its a power rack... I found it is best to remove it from the car. Use rubber pattern (copy) replacements NOT the genuine Peugeot ones which seem to be of a plastic like material. The difficult one is the boot with equal sized ends that needs to be passed over the Power Steering ram stud. This stud cannot be removed by the home mechanic.

Remove the old boot. Place the new boot in a jug of boiling water for a minute or two to soften it, then feed (stretch) over the stud using a spoon to cover the end of the stud and prevent it from piercing the new boot. I replaced mine last week on my 95 GTXD this way but also changed the inner ball-joints and found that the small rubber that fits over the ball joint is held in place by the collar that houses the ram stud. I simply cut around the collar and used mastic to re seal the rubber to the collar after fitting the new inner ball-joint

Hope this helps you out. My workshop manual tells you to take the car to a dealer!

There isn't a steering linkage boot, but there are two steering rack boots located underneath the car. To access them raise the vehicle and remove the two front wheels. Remove the lower ball joint, outer tie rod, and inner tie rod. Removing the inner tie rod allows access to the boot. Loosen the clamp and pull off the boot.
