Am I ever going to get an answer to this? They are on their way here and I'm hesitant to install them, but I can't find anything conclusively bad about them on the forum.

I think he said that because Daizen no longer exists, I´m pretty sure you´ll receive some Prothane branded ones. Not bad at all.

I just ordered some aluminum bushings from DM. He said they are about a week backlogged but should have them to me pretty soon. Does anyone know if they come with installation instructions?

Oh okay, I didn't know. Ordered from TMengineering, so I'm hoping the quality is still up to par.

Ok, didn't want to scare you, but don't want you to wait for nothing either, I said what I said because a lot of people, and I mean a lot, have ordered Daizen through TM Engineering but never got their items. They'd also receive a shipping confirmation but it never arrives. So don't get your hopes up, and don't wait too long either that you can't get a refund back from your credit card. Good luck again.

Their are other companies that has the steering rack bushings in polyurethane for future reference which have also been mentioned in this same thread.

A lot of people aren't aware of this, but Whiteline Suspension also makes Poly steering rack bushings for the SC300. It's what i'm currently running on my car...

I just got these from Driftmotion (Battle). They look a little different than what the other kits come with (aside from the poly part)



Didn't come with any instructions whatsoever - just a sticker. WTF?

Thank you, they still havent come in the mail yet. So I'm going to assume they aren't coming and I'm really glad I wrote down my order number and all of that jazz. I'll see if I can't get a refund and order from somewhere else.

dont really need instructions. just take out the old bushing on the driver side and these just slip on. might need a hammer and a few light taps

have them on my car and they are awesome

Having issues knocking my old ones out. Can't even get the lowers out. Not at all excited about the top ones! I was hoping they would just pop right out, but I guess mine aren't as worn as some peoples...

Well I finally got them out after a lot of banging with the hammer. I guess I could have used a torch and melted the bushing... but I went the old fashioned way with a BFG.

One piece of advice I'd offer - make sure you get the rubber part back on the rack on the passenger side before you tighten anything down. I learned this the hard way and had to loosen everything all over again.

I haven't driven it yet as I'm running late, but hoping to notice a difference...

Yep they still aren't here, just filed a complaint with paypal to get my money back, it's been a month and no communication from him, no response on any of the 3 email addresses he has, no shipping confirmation, nothing.

Got my aluminum Battle versions few months back, and finally installed them today along with the new energy suspension sway bar bushings. Took about couple of hours, everything went very smooth.
