🔌 Function

Lines the bore the steering yoke or lever turns in, giving a low-friction bearing surface and taking the wear instead of the housing.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Free play at the wheel before the steering responds
• Steering stiff, notchy or sticking through part of its travel
• Bushing worn oval, or turning in its housing
• Corrosion or dried-out grease at the bearing
• Knocking felt through the steering as load reverses

🛠️ Service Notes

• Check the shaft or splines that run in the bushing, since a worn bushing usually comes with a worn shaft
• Steering is safety critical, so confirm free play and full travel after fitting
