If they were the bushes tried on my car, then they weren't the best fit. I'm talking about the bushes Jak (Ecko) is testing.

FITTING TIPS -
Using this method will dramatically reduce the amount of cursing involved.

On the pinion side of the rack with the 'd' shaped bush, apply bush grease (not included) -
-along the side 'lips' where the 'd' bush mounts on the rack housing
-along the top of the retaining 'shoe' / clamp
-on the bump in the crossmember that locates in the front of the 'd' bush

fitting bushes -
-really work the D bush in, make sure the ends meet at the seam
-fit both bushes to the rack before putting the rack back in the car / fitting any retaining clamps

-fit passenger side retaining clamp LOOSELY - bolts only in a few turns
-put drivers side retaining clamp in place - insert the 'tongue' at the end of the retainer into the 'groove' in the crossmember
-while compressing the back of the retainer with some large multigrips, use a prybar to push the rack forward to push the rack into the locating notch on the crossmember and align the front bolt hole (prying the rack housing forward using the body to lever on). While doing this insert the front retaining bolt. You may need a friend, or you may have to get inventive.
-use prybar to push retainer down into bush, levering off the gearbox to engine brace - fit rear bolt while doing this

Put in my rack bushes last night, not as hard as I expected. I'd just rebuilt the rack so I greased the D bushing and used a bench vice to seat the D bush fully. Without munting it of course. It worked really well. Yet to test drive....
