Steering rack mount advice/ recommendation

Post

Back to the top
Hi Guys,

I noticed when I originally bought my cabby that there was some play in the steering.
On further inspection and with the help of a friend I found out that the steering rack is moving from side to side in the mounting bushes! :(Any suggestions on where to get new bushes from or which types to go for?
I have had a look at GSF ones but they look cheap and nasty and looked at the Powerflex ones which look a lot more robust.

Any ideas would be a great help.:thumbs:Cheers as always.

I`ve just recently had the same issue…turned out that the o/s bulkhead mount had slightly detached itself from the bulkhead and was moving with the rack,therefore pulling/pushing the rack throught the bush on the other side..seems a bit of a common problem…just check them first before you dive in and buy bushes..oh,and I fitted new rubbers anyway,got them from AVS vw spares.or there are a few places listed on here (down the left hand side)
