They were available at the dealer in 2014. Have not asked recently.

Subject: Steering column flange bushing availability?

The two rubber bushings that engage the pins in the steering shaft linkage inside the drivers cabin of the Vanagon: mine are getting a little loose. Van-cafe is the only place I can locate them so far, and I'm not going to pay their $15.00 for two ounces of rubber. Nobody else seems to have them. I'd pay dealer prices (assuming they are still available) for really good quality as this is an important component of the steering feel.

If T3 sold them I would go for that but can't find them there either.

Any recommendations?

Thanks,

Jim
