Installing a UPR k member with an SN95 power steering rack, any idea of what bushings I need to install? The MM ones won't work as it's not a MM k member. Also saw the offset prothane ones.

IMO--Don't run offset bushings. Buy what will fit in poly and send it.

Agree with no to offset bushings. To run those you really need a bumpsteer kit and to actually measure the bumpsteer.

Some standard prothane or energy suspension units will work fine. I think the year span is something like 81-04 as the later Fox racks and SN95 racks all had essentially the same housing.

That k member comes with rack bushings when new. Is yours used?

Thanks for the input! No, I got it used and it had a fox steering rack attached to it. I removed it and will be installing the SN95 power steering rack to it.

Not directly related to OPs question but I run offset rack bushings with 96-04 spindles to not need a bumpsteer kit. I use them to offset the rack down along with some k-member mods to raise the control arm mount point.

I had not thought about that before. This will come in handy soon.
