You can set the toe yourself after swapping a steering rack.
It might need an alignment anyway due to age and wear, but a person can
change a rack, and get the toe-in darn close to where it was using just yard
sticks to measure.    
  By golly, you can even fine tune the centering of the steering wheel (
between what you can get from which splines it sits on ) by figuring out
which tie rod to lengthen or shorten.

I've been eyeing that set,too. I hear that it is an easy installation of the
seals, but that rebuilding dosent last as long as it should. BD has a rack
with outter tie rod ends for a very good price.

Remember, replacing the rack requires a front end alignment. Consider
driving without a PS belt. Wont hurt.
