Okay, one more question: Are there any bushings in the PS Rack? Are they included in your rebuild kit? Are they available?

The only bushing is a spring loaded push piece that keeps posit ave pressure on the rack itself. I have been into almost 100 racks and I have never seen one wear out. The older style racks (944) have a copper inserted one with the newer racks (968) have a plastic one. That is one of the only differences between years is the material of that bushing.

The kit has everything that would wear out and it comes with support. I am always available , with digital camera in hand , to answer any questions you have during the rebuild. I would say about 75% of the people that purchase the rack kits do have some additional questions during the rebuild process.
