Default Poly Rack bushings

I'm sure this has been covered but I can't seem to find it. I'm looking to buy a set of steering rack bushings and tie rod ends for my 90. Suggestions on suppliers in the US?

Thanks,
Rob

Type in "XJS steering rack bushings" on e-bay...you'll find, poly, updated neoprene and stockers. I used the updated neoprene from capt jaguars cat house. I wanted a little feel/softness not the harshness of poly. Plenty to choose from on there from capt jag to coventry west to welsh and beyond, prices from $14.98 for uprated neoprene from CW to $55 for the poly from johns cars..
uprated neoprene:
Jaguar Power Steering Rack Mount Bushing Kit P N CAC1635K | eBay
Poly:
Polyurethane Steering Rack Bushing Set for XJ6 XJ12 and XJS Models | eBay
Stockers:
New Jaguar XJ6 XJS Steering Rack Bushing Set | eBay

You can get the tie rod ends from your local parts store or e-bay or any of the usual suspects RockAuto has about 15 manufactures variety anywhere from URO for $11 to MooG for $26 (I'd go with the MooG)

Even easier you can get them on Amazon - several suppliers to choose from, many have Prime shipping. If they have a part listed that they say fits your car but doesn't when it shows up they'll pay return shipping. I find that most of the local parts stores have to order Jag parts in from their warehouses.

Something to consider... I also try to support specialty vendors, though, because with these older cars they'll increasingly be our only options. They already are for some parts. They usually don't provide two day Prime service, though.
