What is the main benefit of using polyurethane bushings?

Polyurethane bushings are more durable and resistant to degradation than rubber. This means they maintain their firmness longer, leading to improved steering feel and a more consistent connection to the road over time.

Does this kit include everything needed to replace the rack bushings?

This kit includes the polyurethane bushings for the rack and pinion. You may need additional tools for removal of the old bushings and installation of the new ones, so refer to a service manual for your specific vehicle.

How does this part affect steering feel?

By replacing the softer rubber bushings with firmer polyurethane, this set reduces flex and slop in the steering system. This results in a more direct and responsive steering feel, making the car feel more connected to the road.

About this part

Product Details

When you're looking to firm up the steering on your 1997-2001 Ford Escort, replacing the worn-out rubber rack and pinion bushings is a smart move. These red polyurethane bushings from Energy Suspension are designed to replace the stock ones, giving you a more direct connection to the road.

Energy Suspension uses their proprietary Hyper-Flex polyurethane material, which is known for being tough and long-lasting. Unlike rubber, this material won't degrade as quickly from road grime or temperature changes, meaning your steering will feel tighter and more responsive for a lot longer. It's a well-built component that outlasts and outperforms the original rubber bushings, giving you improved durability and a noticeable difference in steering precision.
