Mugen hardened steering rack bushings for the DC5

I saw these on King's website but had not really heard of them before.

Between going through pictures of the DC5 rack and the EM2 rack, the setup looks quite similar.

Has anyone experimented with these?


I am about to do a lot of work of my steering rack and this would be an opportune moment to replace the bushings as well.

I think the RSX has a different gearbox. I looked it up on here and the picture looks different.

Re: Mugen hardened steering rack bushings for the DC5

Speaking of which...

The 05-06 DC5s have a quicker ratio steering rack than the previous years?

That might be a great swap...
