Aftermarket Recommendation Wanted

I’m looking for recommendations for y’all’s preferred aftermarket rack and pinion bushings. My boyfriend just always thought I was a horrible driver, until I got new tires and an alignment and let him drive it. Long story short he realized I’m a great driver whose truck has play in the steering. So here I am, looking for the best y’all have to recommend!

 

Are you sure its the bushings on the rack? How many miles on the truck? Could be intermediate shafts or tie rods. Easy to check n see if they have slop with two people. if over 100k id be replacing inner and outer tie rods before rack bushings (they are a pain to get to on the 2nd gen). There is also the ability to tighten up the slider bushing lash of the rack n pinion on the truck which could help as well.

I notice a lot of tacoma have had problems with the stock steering rack bushings. Its weak and it sucks. I installed these and its been good so far. Installed them like a year ago. I toll a 4000lb bass boat and trailer

The bushings aren't too expensive but.. their is some work to it..You got to take the steering rack out to change the bushings
