MOOG® K80592 - Front Steering Idler Arm

The idler arm attaches to the frame on the side of the vehicle opposite the steering gear, and supports the center link, keeping it level. A worn idler arm will typically exhibit up and down play and cause the toe setting to vary with concurrent shimmy and looseness in the steering. The engineers at MOOG consistently develop problem-solving solutions providing a wide array of replacement parts that guarantee a quality fit, long-lasting performance, and OE steering feel that technicians and owners prefer.

MOOG idler arms feature a double-tapered bearing design and internal take-up spring to absorb shock and vibration for smoother, safer movement and enhanced durability. These idler arms use powdered-metal gusher bearings with grease grooves to deliver improved performance over the stock units. Thanks to this approach, grease can flow through the bearing to the stud providing a smooth, durable surface that extends service life.
