The Idler Arm is part of the Steering Linkage, and is the counterpoint to the Steering Gear Arm.
Contents |
[edit]
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.
[edit]
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.
