the rubber gaiters around my track rod ball joints are torn. Should I replace the entire assembly, or is there another solution? How pressing is the problem?

Also is this a DIY job? Any special considerations?

www.thatchedroofgarage.com has greaseable ones for ~$14.58 that are for DIs.

You will likely need a big pipe wrench.

Yeah - and a gas ax most of the time to free up the TRE's
