Help! Looking for Steering Rack Bushes

[V35_Paul]

Hey guys

I'm having trouble finding replacement bushes for the V36 coupe 2011 steering rack.

I just need one and i'm not keen to buy the whole steering rack just for one bushing

i've seen V35/350Z bushes come up on a google search but nothing for the V36/G37

I don't think it has a part number and nissan won't sell it.

Correct, there is no part number hence not available

The rack part number is 49200JK00A this rack is fitted to the following Chassis : 

CV36

V36

CKV36

KV36

PV36

its completely unique to the 36 chassis range unfortunately

If you can figure out the size of the bush and tube insert, try going to the Superpro website they have a section called Find my bush size, small possibility they have a bush thats close. I got lucky with a BMW bush I couldn't match. Had too reduce the length though.

thanks

All good glad to help.

Well it's not easy to measure ?

I asked my Mechanic and he said he would charge hours of labour just do this. 

Does anyone have there V36 or 370Z in pieces to measure the bush I need? 

I'll do some more googling tonight too.

Not good 

Had the rack removed to get measurements. 

It's all sealed up and you would damage the rack if you tried to remove them. Then you wouldn't be able to fit new ones. 

My mechanic has just greased up and tighten them down. Now I don't have any movement problems so I'm happy.

Oh that’s not to good to hear I have movement issues two , do you know what he greased up buy a chance 

[V35_Paul]

He said every thing that might be causing movement or feed back to the steering wheel. 

I think making sure everything was really tight helped the most.
