Default Steering rack blew

Backed my Stang out of the garage the other day and there was a huge puddle of PS fluid that leaked out of the boot on the passenger side of the rack. I was told that the piston blew a seal and I'd need to replace the rack. Any chance this can be rebuilt and if not, where can i get a new rack? I want to stay with power steering, I put a short belt on in the meantime, bypassing the ps pump, and it steers like a dead pig. I might consider a manual rack if it steers about a hundred time better than my current rack with the ps pump bypassed. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
