The Idler Arm is part of the Steering Linkage, and is the counterpoint to the Steering Gear Arm.
Contents |
Overview
The idler arm has replaceable #bushings. When these wear out it causes the infamous double-knock sound when going over bumps.
The Idler Arm bolts to the subframe rail on opposite side from the steering gearbox.
Steering_Linkage: #1 Idler Arm
The bolts go through the Front Side Member (front chassis rail).
4It fastens to the chassis via two long bolts.
RHD
RHD Idler Arm is the same for all 1200s: ute/wagon/sedan/coupe — even the 1994 Sunny Truck uses the same part number.
LHD
LHD assembly part number differs from RHD. All the sub-parts (including the arm crank) are the same. However, the bracket looks like the RHD part turned upside down.
