has anyone ever replaced bushings and gromets on the steering rack tube before? I need help doing this and would like to know how easy it is to do. I would rather do it myself rather than pay 169 bucks.

 

Disconnect tie rods from the spindle, unbolt the two bolts holding the rack to the frame, pull the rack out and support it, and then pry the old bushings out. The most pain in the @$$ part is disconnecting the tie rods since if you use the pickle fork and a claw hammer, it'll take 10 min of whacking to knock it off.
