STEERING RACK BUSHING (Starlet, Tercel, Corolla FF models only)

In order to eliminate a knocking noise generated between the steering gear rack and the bushing when the vehicle is driven over rough roads, two sizes of
steering rack bushings have been made available to optimize bushing-to-rack clearance..
