Steering Rack Bushings - Where To Buy?

Anybody know where I can buy upgraded steering rack bushings? I can't seem to find a place that carries the Superpros. Thanks.

Well if you want my opinion, the steering rack isn't moving around much with the stock bushings, when the stock bushings are in good condition.

As with so many aftermarket items, there is placebo effect and the fact that most owners are comparing worn out stock bushings to the new aftermarket bushings. There is the new factor and the upgrade factor - and in that case there is no way to know which factor was making the difference.

Have you tried contacting them directly?

http://www.superpro.com.au/superpro_products.html

or you could try contacting Wanklin since he organized the last groupby:
