2006 Tundra - Bad steering rack or not?

Topic starter

So I have a 2006 Toyota Tundra SR5 DC, 4x4, 4.7L w/~190k.  The DS steering boot is torn and there is visible grease on the outside of the boot.  It's the original rack and pinion. However, I have not observed it to leak anything.  I placed paper towels under both DS and PS boots overnight, no drips.  The PS reservoir remains unchanged.  Steering feels absolutely fine, no grinding that I can perceive, there is a little play, but not bad.  I expect the rack and pinion should be replaced eventually with a vehicle with this mileage, but is now the time?  Or should I just replace the boot?

If it's working properly, replace the boot to keep the grease in.
