[DML] Re: Steering rack boot installation

["Chris Williams" <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I did have the car alligned after doing mine. However I was also 
replacing the track rod (tie rod) ends on the car. However if you very 
carefully marked the position you may be able to get them back exact. 
However over in the UK getting the tracking done is not that 
expensive, so its probably best to get it re-done, it will save on 
tyre ware at the very least!
