Is it necessary to replace complete rack-pinion or can you just install new seals when the steering is leaking Assuming power steering fluid seal would not work?
Yes, you can replace just the "boots" on the end of a rack-and-pinion steering provided that the mechanism is not damaged. Unfortunately, the boot is just a dust cover and if the inner mechanism has started leaking there really isn't much that can be done without completely disassembling the mechanism. The fluid in a rack assembly is under pressure from the Power Steering pump and once it starts leaking the rack is pretty much "done".
Rubber boots on power steering ballooning up whats the problem they are new and you just put them on a 1989 dodge Dakota?
transmission fluid can make rubber expand check for leaks. as will and petroleum based oil if you used a grease gun on the boots make sure you used lithium grease. coulld be you filled them with too much grease or if you have power steering you might have fluid leaking into boots. if it has power steering fluid in the boot the grease will be really runny and you need a new rack and pinion.

How do I know if my power steering pump went out if my power steering fluid is low or if it is my steering column that is broken?
If you are losing fluid, you need to find out where it is going. Usually it is pretty easy to find most leaks: out of the seals on the pump, out of the lines or cooler, out of the steering gear, or out of the rack and pinion. Sometimes you'll have to poke a small hole in the rubber boot on the rack and watch for fluid coming out. Your steering column wouldn't be the problem. Hope this helps.
