Description
This repair kit restores steering idler arm operation by replacing worn components that cause looseness and uneven steering response. The kit contains precision replacement parts engineered to match the original geometry for correct alignment and stable handling. It is designed for use where the idler arm bushing or related hardware has deteriorated and requires renewal to eliminate play and improve steering feedback.
Key specifications include high strength steel components with corrosion resistant plating, precision machined bushings and sleeves, and included fasteners required for a complete repair. The kit provides serviceable parts that allow for correct preload and fitment and is compatible with standard workshop installation procedures. Components are manufactured to tight tolerances to ensure consistent steering geometry and to help prevent premature wear.
Installation is straightforward for a competent technician and the kit is suitable for both professional repair shops and experienced DIYers. Greaseable fittings where provided allow ongoing lubrication to extend service life and maintain smooth operation. Use our Rego Finder to find if this part is compatible with your vehicle.
