RACK AND PINION BUSHINGS (1 Viewer)

Just seeing who has done these and if they are a big PITA?? I plan on doing mine at the advice of the alignment shop. I don't see movement though and steering is super tight. They also told me the cam bolts need to be replaced because the last whoever did the alignment stripped them out? I had them align it anyways because of all new front end parts and it was darting. It drives better, but it's not perfect.

Not terrible, I have access to a lift though. Took me about an hour to do 3

Did you just burn out the old bushings? That is what I have seen in 2 vids. I am getting the new bushings from Energy Suspension

No I just remove the bolts remove the bushing put in the new bushing install bolts. They were a little tough to get out but a socket the size of the hole helped

Thanks! I'll be giving it a go either this weekend or next. I'll try it take photos and such and report back.
