Idler Arm, 61-62 Tempest, Bushing Style

A must-have for tight steering

Help renew your steering linkage with a new idler arm from OPGI. These idler arms are identical to original equipment and include the mounting bracket to the frame for a hassle-free installation. Choose between our standard idler arms or our premium Moog idler arms. Standard idler arms include a patented low-friction bearing which has been enlarged for easier movement. Other features include a heat-treated and forged bracket as well as a permanently attached boot for protection from dust and dirt. Premium Moog idler arms are manufactured by the OE supplier and feature an internal spring to absorb shock and vibration for maximum durability. The patented press-in cover plate eliminates excessive play and the powdered metal gusher bearing allows grease to flow for improved movement. The tapered bearing design decreases deflection, while the large bearing surface distributes the load evenly.
