    My truck has 158,000 miles on it. For the people who have changed out the steering rack bushings, did you notice much of a difference from oem to the polyurethane ones? I am just wondering if it is worth it.

    They are a bit firmer than the stock ones.

    I have done all the hi-pro mods for a life time, since I got this truck at a great price, I will be happy with showroom new.

    they are well worth it. I have been using their products for many years, and on many different cars and trucks.
    yes the are "firmer" than stock, but they will last much longer, with the miles on your truck if they are the org. then I am sure you will be surprised at the difference.
