Cushion the steering rack and quiet road vibration with the Mevotech Supreme Rack and Pinion Mount Bushing (MK8419). This FRONT bushing locates and isolates the steering rack where it mounts to the crossmember, absorbing vibration and helping keep the rack positioned as you steer. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1983-1986 Ford Escort, 1983-1985 Ford EXP, 1984-1986 Ford Tempo, 1983 Mercury LN7, 1983-1986 Mercury Lynx, and 1984-1986 Mercury Topaz.
Worn, cracked, or separated rack mount bushings can allow excess rack movement, vibration through the steering, and imprecise feel. If a failed mount bushing is the cause of those symptoms, this replaces it. Inspect the bushing and surrounding hardware during installation and follow the vehicle service procedure.
