recently embarked on a project to replace most bushings that are somewhat reachable and not to much of a PITA.

Which lead me to the steering rack bushings.

1) is this a bushing that should be changed out.
2) is it easy to access?

from the sng parts catalog it looks similar to the sway bar bushing which was a breeze to change so if it thats easy I might changed them out especially because each one is a few bucks.
