Bushing - Steering Shaft

The Bushing - Steering Shaft by Chassis Engineering (MPN C/E2710-3) is a precision replacement component designed for drivers and mechanics who demand reliable steering response and smooth column operation. This steering shaft bushing serves as a critical wear item in the steering column assembly, isolating vibration and reducing friction where the steering shaft rotates through the column jacket. Whether you're restoring a classic vehicle, maintaining a daily driver, or building a high-performance suspension setup, a quality steering shaft bushing is essential for preserving steering feel and preventing excessive play that can develop over time.

Engineered from durable plastic material, this bushing features a 0.77-inch outer diameter and measures 1.127 inches in length, providing a compact yet effective bearing surface for the steering shaft. The black plastic construction offers excellent resistance to heat cycles and steering loads while maintaining low friction characteristics that keep steering input responsive. At just 0.04 pounds, this lightweight component integrates seamlessly into the steering column without adding unwanted mass, and its precisely molded dimensions (1.9 x 1.25 x 3.05 inches) ensure proper fitment and alignment within the column bore.

Mechanics and enthusiasts commonly replace steering shaft bushings when loose or worn steering columns develop clunking sounds, excessive free-play, or a vague steering feel—symptoms indicating deteriorated bushing contact. This replacement bushing is ideal for anyone performing steering column maintenance, suspension upgrades, or vehicle restoration work where original components have fatigued. Installation is straightforward for those with basic mechanical skill, though proper removal of the steering column and careful bushing seating ensures optimal performance and longevity of your steering system.
