I pulled the '74B out of storage this weekend and gave it the spring
servicing.  In the process, I noticed that both steering rack boots are split
open pretty wide and probably should be replaced. Is this a very difficult
job? It appears that the tie rod ends will have to be removed prior to
slipping off the boot.    Is it Ok to leave the weight on the front wheels
when disassembling the tie rod end?  What is the best way to insure my front
end stays in alignment?  How do I make sure I did not lose any lubricant? Any
advice appreciated!
