offset steering rack bushings


Hey guys, I have a 04 GT Vert -- just bought the Eiback Pro Kit and BBK C/C plates. Haven't installed yet and wondering what else I need to replace to keep the suspension geometry kosher. How about these offset steering rack bushings? Sorry if the link doesn't work, I'm new at hyperlinking.

the offset rack bushings should cure the bumpsteer that lowered mustangs
get from incorrect geometry.another more expensive option is to get a
UPR extreme bumpsteer kit which replaces the outer tie rod ends.Dont forget an alignment

Straight from Anthony Jones himself, "the only time offset rack bushings should be used is when more oil pan clearance is needed".

Change the geometry the right way with a bump steer kit.
