Keep your steering rack firmly located and cushioned with the Dorman - OE Solutions Rack and Pinion Mount Bushing 533-558. This front bushing seats where the steering rack fastens to the vehicle, helping isolate road vibration and limit unwanted movement of the rack. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1985-2004 Ford Mustang, 1985-1988 Ford Cougar and more — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
- Front rack support: locates and cushions the steering rack at its mounting point to help limit movement.
- Vibration isolation: helps dampen road and steering vibration transmitted through the rack.
- Direct-fit replacement: designed to install in place of the worn original on the listed applications.
- Broad coverage: fits a range of 1980s-2000s Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models.
Signs the original bushing may need replacing include steering looseness or play, a knock or clunk felt through the wheel when turning or over bumps, and cracked or deteriorated bushing material. If a worn rack mount bushing is the cause, this replaces it; diagnose the cause before ordering.
