    Question Where to find Steering column bushings - 901.347.795.00

    Removing a few things to clean and recondition the trunk area. I noticed that these are in bad shape: 901.347.795.00

    Number 7 in the diagram... rubber bushings. No longer available from Pelican, SMC, Stoddard... anything else you guys have found to work for replacing these?

    Drive safe!

    Thank you.

    Serves me right for not checking availability first before removing...

    It probably just started out as a round grommet. Just go to your local friendly Ace hdw. and find an appropriate bulkhead grommet, when installed it become oblong. I haven't done this yet, but have determined when I need to that's where I'll start.

    Thanks for the advice. That's exactly what I did tonight and after some careful trimming with a #12 scalpel blade, I had some very nice looking steering column bushings!
