    Info on replacing idler arm

    Any tips or tricks? Done it before, not on a FMJ. 60 ft lbs for the frame side and 40 ft lbs for the drag link? Puller or pickle fork? Any issues with the bolt on the frame side? I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow night and I just noticed while changing the oil. Any advise would be greatly...

    Trailer hitch

    106 is mild for these parts. No problem, it will probably stay on the car forever now.

    Trailer hitch

    These pictures suck, but they give you an idea. Its 106° and too bright to get good pics or lay on the hot asphalt!

    The one I posted is fully welded, no glue or epoxy and it comes with a one year warranty. Other than shipping it back and forth its about the same as the parts store rad, but no plastic tanks.

    I get that, but cost is a big issue. Its not worth $500 to me. I will probably get the plastic made in China rad from my local parts store so I can return it when/if it fails.
