What is a Backorder?
Q: What is backorder?
When a product is on backorder, it means that we have sold out and we are opening a back order due to popular demand. This is essentially a queue, when new stock arrives from production, we’ll send your order.Q: Will items in my order that are in stock be shipped out first?
We will send your order altogether once your backorder item is ready! You may wish to place separate orders if you want an item before the other is due back in stock.The GKTECH alloy extended steering shaft bush will increase your steering response. The feedback that the stock steering rack provides to the driver can sometimes be a bit unpredictable, but with this product response is transferred all the time. A must for the serious driver, both street and track.

FAQs
What's the advantage of a solid steering shaft bush?The solid steering shaft bush is a direct replacement of the standard rubber bush. As you can imagine, a rubber bush that big, can't be good particularly after 15-20+ years. Upgrading to our solid steering shaft bush gives you a much more direct feel of the steering.
Will this fit my car?
Please refer to the confirmed vehicle list in the item description. We do not sell any items that aren't listed on our website and if we haven't confirmed fitment on your car, then we don't know if it will fit or not. Note that S14's, S15's, R33's and R34's do NOT have a rubber bush like the earlier models and as such this modification isn't possible on these cars.
How long does it take to install this steering shaft bush?
The steering shaft bush will take around 1 hour to install with the engine in the car. If for some reason you don't have the engine in the car, it will only take 5 minutes or so to install the bush.
Is this solid steering shaft bush something I could install myself?
Yes, it's certainly not a difficult job to install the bush, it's just time consuming and you need some patience (and small hands)

Customer Reviews
This was the only option for my relocated steering rack. This fit flawlessly! And now I have perfect spline engagement. I found it easier to actually pull the whole steering column through the inside of the car, installed it the same way I pulled it out. Took me maybe 45 minutes engine in. (LS)
As described came in a very quick timeline and was shipped near immediately. Fitted right up nicely!
Nice quality piece. The bushing extended my steering shaft to perfect length for my RHD converted 240sx
Super easy fit worth every cent
Good quick service was simply and easy
