8.10105G
Overview:
Energy Suspension Polyurethane Rack & Pinion Bushings are engineered to enhance steering precision and feedback for your Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, or Subaru BRZ. Designed as a direct replacement for the factory rubber bushings, these polyurethane bushings provide a firmer, more responsive connection between the steering rack and chassis. This upgrade is ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved handling and a more connected driving experience without sacrificing durability.
By replacing the soft, deteriorating rubber bushings with high-quality polyurethane, these bushings maintain a solid mounting point for the steering rack, reducing unwanted movement and play. The result is sharper steering response, increased road feel, and better overall control, making them a valuable upgrade for both street and track use.

Construction & Design:
These bushings are crafted from Energy Suspension’s proprietary hyper-flex polyurethane, a material known for its excellent balance of stiffness and elasticity. This composition allows the bushings to absorb vibrations and impacts while maintaining a firm hold on the steering rack. Unlike traditional rubber, polyurethane resists cracking, swelling, and deformation caused by heat, oil, and road contaminants.
The design ensures a precise fit to the factory mounting points, allowing for easy installation without modifications. The bushings’ robust construction contributes to a longer service life and consistent performance, even under demanding driving conditions.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation of the Energy Suspension Rack & Pinion Bushings is straightforward and requires no special tools or modifications. They are designed to fit the stock mounting locations on the steering rack of the Scion FR-S (2013–2016), Toyota 86 (2017–2020), and Subaru BRZ (2013–2020). Replacing the factory rubber bushings with these polyurethane units will solidify the steering rack’s attachment, improving steering response immediately after installation.
For best results, professional installation or a thorough understanding of suspension components is recommended to ensure proper torque specifications and alignment.
