Front Idler Arm, Greasable, With 2-1/2 In. Between Mount Holes
Works Great
It fit perfectly. The nut was a smaller size than the original but no biggie. For someone with the 4WD I suggest lubing it before installment. I installed it and the couldn’t get the grease gun fitting into grease fitting attached the steering rod. Had to remove it, grease it, then reinstall.
