I have an 01 crv and the steering rack is loose on the passenger side. Someone just replaced it and i'm not sure if they did it right. Theres a round bushing that goes around the body of the steering rack, then a half circle bracket on the bottom side that holds it there. Theres nothing on top keeping it from moving upwards, and its creating a weird steering issue. My question is, can someone enlighten me with a picture or description of how the steering rack fastens on the passenger side?

 

Sounds like you are missing item #4 in the attached diagram. Basically it goes on first, then the steering rack/bushing around it, followed by item #6.

Part #53435-S04-J50

Looks like the part is the same one as the 96-00 civics, so if you want to get one used you have a few different cars to get it from.

 

Dude, you're a champ, thank you. That's exactly what I needed to see.

 

Its no problem, when I switched to a manual rack on my em1 I almost forgot to install that piece as well.
