I know everyone has had good luck with the aluminum rack bushings stopping the annoying steering creak... But what about the polyurethane ones?
Poly rack bushings cure the steering "creek"?

Get the updated Ford sleeves too. They are the ones the bolt goes through.

+1 I'm having it on lefts again. Stupid dealer took out my alum ones thinking it caused the creak when it was really a frozen strut. Haven't had time to reinstall, and poly would be much easier..
i think i'm going with the aluminum, my car does the same thing - and it's predominently when turning left, mostly when the car is stationary too.
do we need the ford sleeves if we get the MM alum kit?

Just go with the solid bushings. The steering fell will be much better and they have zero increase in nvh. Easy to install too.
How hard is the cutting part for the tubes?
^+1 anyone willing to do a write up?
bump...i'm not mechanically inclined really...is this an easy job? write up would be sweet.:banana:
^^^thanks!
Yes I would get the updated sleeves no matter which bushings you end up doing. Some have had the creak come back after a bit without them.
For anyone doing this. Just do the aluminum bushings. If you have a moderate level of mechanical ability it will be no problem. It took me the first time about 40 minutes. I could probably do it now in 20. Very easy, very cheap, got rid of my creak, and made my steering feel like a sports car.
