Description

Improve the steering of your classic with a roller idler arm.

A roller idler arm reduces steering effort and allows greater feedback to the driver by keeping the steering geometry in check. Replacing the factory rubber bushing with  grease-able bearings maintains proper position of the center link as it moves from side to side. The stock rubber bushing allows the idler arm to move up and down under braking and on rough road conditions, changing the front end toe angle.

Manual steering cars will especially appreciate this upgrade as the reduced steering effort results in more precise steering input while cornering. Slow speed steering is improved making it ideal for street cars as well.

These idler arms have a pivot that is like a ball joint or tie rod end, it is a bit stiff when new but break in quickly and give years of service. They are not rebuildable and need replacing when worn.
