ef steering rack bushings?
ok heres, the deal, when i shake my steering wheel i hear a clunk, check my balljoints my driver side was bad so i changed it. well its still doing it inners are good (but i do have a extra set) so im thinking my rack bushings. most people tell me its not that often a rack itself goes bad. anyone else have this problem? also where i can find some poly rack bushings locally lmk thanks

sounds like the inner rack joint which basically means a new rack is needed. You can try the bushings and if they don't do the trick they can always be transferred to the next rack.

could be several things. Does it make a rattle like sound when going over any bumps? Like the front end is loose?
*tie rod ends
*check loose suspension related bolts LCA bolts, worn bushings etc.
*balljoints
*struts
*wheel bearing
