Default power steering leak, woo hoo

not only do i have white smoke comming from my exhaust i am also leaking power steering fluid, i jacked up the car and the leak is comming from my passanger side steering rack where my tie rod is, is it hard to change my tie rods? i was thinking about picking up maximum motorsports tie rod ends, hopefully it will be a quick couple hour day job

tie rods are pretty straight forward but youll need an alignment after you get done with them.

haynes manual will do it, its pretty easy you'll see. I would mark the on the steer racks threads where the tie rod was with white out or the like.. then you can install the new one in the same spot, no alignment needed. (be there done that lol).
