I have a question on this step. How "bad" is this particular step to do - rusty? Is there a gasket underneath? Must it be replaced? I ask from bad experiences in this area on other cars.

I'm asking for another reason unrelated - in addition to the play, my steering box leaks, so I'm removing the whole darned box and having it resealed/adjusted by an independent MB shop with the right tools, after which I'll replace the center link, rebuild the idler arm (did the tie rods already).
