Is it possible to refill the steering rack without removing the rack from the car. It looks tight and I also believe there is a risk of loosing the spring if you remove the top cover. I assume you loose some of the fluid when the rack boot tears so thats why my question. Anyone have any tricks.

I don't have the bushing problem yet just had a rack boot tear and spread a little grease. OM says it has .33pints of 85W-90W gear lub in it and I was wondering if anyone had a way of replacing the fluid without removing the rack. Just asking
