A 'slight' hard steering spot may be due to a chipped or worn tooth on the mild steel rack gear. The pinion gear is hardened so it doesn't wear much. Using the lazy mechanic's method of adding grease instead of gear oil for lube inside doesn't help the wear problem.

BTW, most people that change the stock steel/rubber/plastic bushing for a bronze one don't take the time to deburr worn teeth on the rack gear. Then while reassembling the steering rack, the burrs ream out the new bushing so instantly, your new bushing become a worn bushing.
