Default Play in steering rack

Hi all...

My misses drove to Melbourne and back in her AU. She complained of a slight vibration in the steering wheel. I looked under the car and found to my horror that both front wheels are chewed badly on the inside - down to the canvas actually.

With the car on the ground I got her to move the steering wheel left and right slightly. I can here a clunk in the steering rack. ( or somewhere just above it ).

So what does this mean? Am I up for a whole new steering assembly?

If so are they hard to change yourself? What would a new rack cost???

Thanks.
