Was looking under the car today. Do the 2 front hard lines need to come out to get the bushings in? It looks like there is only 1/2" inch between the lines and the oil pan to move the rack up.
Steering rack bushings
- Thread starter agp1183
- Start date
I did mine with all lines attached. I used was a small pry bar to raise the rack up a little, and slid old out (what little remained) and put new in with a bit of effort. Getting the bushings in is not that hard, its getting everything lined up and bolting in the retainer plates that sucks.
the picture on cygnusx it looks like the more sqaure bushing goes on the Driver Side and the Perfect circle one goes on the Passenger side is this correct?
Yes, the square sided one goes on DR side. If its anything like mine, it's precut and you can't locate the cut by eye easy. Just apply a little pressure and you will find it.
WEll i just finish putting on the Bushings all i can say is OOO LORd! lol i will upload some pictures once i take a Freakin Flippin Shower
so basically the old bushings look like someone throw a bomb at them and the passenger side i took off the 17mm bolts with my bare hands Ooo yea it was nice a tight lloll:3d_frown:
i had a lil fitment issue put i quickly saw my error!:nono: pretty much changeing theses bushings alone, at 11p.m, with 2 jackstands, while laying on my back wasn't too bad ...
oo yea and holding the DaM flashlight with my Mouth! the few cuts and curse words later my steering was back to haveing very lil free play:love:
