aluminum steering rack replacement

[F3BZ]

since the internal bushing for the later aluminum steering racks isn't available anymore from 4Green or Ford, this Superpro bushing might get you going again. only glitch might be the length. it is about 7mm shorter. otherwise the I.D and O.D. and the locating tabs are identical . this is listed by Superpro as being for a Fiat 128 and the Aussie WB Festiva. part# SPK0931K. the pictures show it compared with the correct Kia bushing.

Looks like these bushings should be an easy 3d printer project. I'm not that knowledgeable about the process myself. Would the type of plastic be a problem?
