took me close to 7 hours with all the bs i did haha, eating and drinkin was one of them.. but not to bad tho

DAIZEN BUSHINGS.. DIY

1. Passenger side, unbolt that side first and put a jack stand under it so it wont hang..
2. Driver side. unbolt the bottom and top screws and then place a 2X4 wood or something behind the rack n pinion
3. Use a 3/8 3" inch extension and hammer its in there (might want to use a crappy one, not a snap on or matco,etc cuzz it will be damaged...) this is for the lower bushings, hammer it until it comes out.. remember the wood is placed behind the rack so it doesnt damage it...
4. Top bushing, since the lines are in the way, add a 6" inch extension onto the 3" inch exten... and start hammering away until it comes out.. couldnt imagine how bad it would be with them pliers tho... but yeah i think this way better imo.. (also its a 2 man job)
