THANK YOU!! For not wasting everyone's time telling how to jack up the truck, remove tires and 35 safety disclaimers, bla bla, before actually getting to the subject. Thanks

Excellent video. That's a great technique how to line up that vertical middle bolt by using the opposite end bolts to slightly tighten them until the middle bolts just drops straight down into the hole. I know people struggle with that bolt putting the rack back together. Also, damn there's still a lot of steering slop coming from somewhere, after you finished the rack job! Maybe tie rod ends? I know my tie rod ends wore out at about 250K miles. I'm about to do my steering rack bushings and I'm at 292K miles now.

Great video and thanks for showing how to do it. I just did the same on my 04 Tundra Dbl cab today.

bushings on my 2006 tundra were in bad shape so they came out with finger, passenger side d bracket top bolt was stuck bad, realized it extends out in back, had to spray PB in back too, came out in 2 sec, used grease for new bushings, putting back rack and lining up with hole was hard, definitely need pry bar

1.The Dorman kit didn't have a new washer. If you install a washer between the rack and the frame, the holes won't align for the center bush vertical bolt. 2.The right side bushing in the Dorman kit has the split in the exact center. The short boss on the clamp goes to the top. No grease is needed here. 3. Only a little grease is needed to insert the left side bushings and sleeve and Synthetic Brake Caliper grease won't harm rubber or plastics, available at auto parts stores. It's easier to put the nut on without the washer to compress the bushing halves, then remove it and install the washer under it. 5. If the bushings on the left and center are not sloppy, oily and destroyed it is difficult to remove them from the rack, they are kinda glued in. Twisting the left side inner washer with Channel Lock pliers will aid in removal of the old bushing since it is attached to the sleeve.

Just FYI the washer was supposed to go in front behind the nut and not in the back against the frame

Clear video! If I only wanted to replace the split bushing on the passenger side, can I remove the 2-19mm bolts? Would there be enough play to put the new bushing in?

I really doubt it.. it's been awhile but I recall it being a fairly tight assembly. Where you can't move it around much until all the bolts are out.

Is there reason to not buy Toyota bushings ? Maybe they are still rubber and aftermarket has longer lasting ones?

Hi there! Wanted to ask whether worn rack bushings also causes rattle near steering column? Kinda like a steering u joint rattle?
@Trav74r4 жыл бұрын
I don't think a rattle noise is very likely. However worn bushings on the racks will make the entire steering assembly feel loose and sloppy, which could definitely cause some additional noises. Presumably it could lead to a worn out u-joint in the steering shaft, but I imagine that would take a while.

@@Trav74r No, the rattle I think you are talking about is in the steering shaft where the slip joint is in case u have a major accident it collapses, i lightly tack welded mine.

Did you check the center support bearing on drive shaft? That will definitely cause a vibration. Just did one on 02 tundra pretty easy job.

You may have something else wrong, there shouldn't be any clunking noise.

@@fishingforadream9340 Looks like an issue with the inner tie rod or the steering rack seal, behind that boot. I'm no expert by any means, but I don't think it's supposed to move up and down like that.

What grease did you use?
@Trav74r2 жыл бұрын
For polyurethane bushings I try to use silicone grease.
