If I were going to replace that bushing I would make it from oil-impregnated bronze or Delrin plastic. I wouldn't use aluminum just because of the gauling possibility or it flaking into the rack.

I would be interested in buying a pair of these. Can you get Bronze?

Or does anyone know where I can find direct bolt on replacement rack and pinion like pictured 32" wide?

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.

Curly, I made one out of aluminum back in March, and it worked perfectly. There's no possibility of galling, as there is no velocity or friction. The stock one is greased, so that's what I did. I will make you one if you wish. I don't do stuff for money, just like solving problems.
