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".

How do you remove steering wheel knuckle?

To remove the steering wheel knuckle, first, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported. Disconnect the battery, then remove any necessary components, such as the steering column cover and pinch bolt, to access the knuckle. Carefully detach any associated tie rods or linkage, and use appropriate tools to unbolt the knuckle from the steering rack or column. Once unfastened, gently pull the knuckle away from its housing to complete the removal.
