i bought this kit



which bushing goes on the steering rack mount and has the main shift rod go through the middle? none of them seem to fit, and the original bushing is missing so i cant compare them.

My bushing kit had two "orange" bushings, that are different than anything you have, displayed for that main shaft.

I will try to get some pics up tonight.
