Has anyone changed this bushing themselves ?
I have just found the same scenario,had a clunking noise from the steering rack and when I pulled back the left hand boot, fragments of the bush in the oil ,along with some rather large chunks.
Wlll remove the rack and hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction.
(Pardon the pun ??)

^ don't forget to get the preset load on the ball and socket to a non binding or too loose setting once the lock nut is done up to fit the tap in lock pin that hold the 2 together , it seems to loosen up a bit when the lock nut is nipped up?
