Selected User Reviews For MOOG K8283 Idler Arm
My favorite thing about this part is how fast it In case you own a grand marquis, town car, or crown Victoria and the steering wheel feels excessively play or the steering wheel clunks from up front, or when you experience a strange "wandering" while driving. You can shake your idler arm by reaching down and doing so. There's a good chance it's been You should replace it if there is any play in the steering and it feels funny. Start watching videos to see how to replace it yourself. Changing it is not difficult at all. It's best to spray the screws and nuts ahead of time. When you remove the old one, note which way the screws are positioned. Prepare your new Moog part by applying grease to it before you install it. There was no need for me to adjust after this.
Subsequent to replacing this idler arm, the car is driving more confidently than before. No longer do you have to worry about steering wandering. We are going to upgrade to a heavy duty sway bar next. Make sure to keep the panthers alive by using moog parts!.
Along with other parts on the front end, I installed this part. In the event of a wheel failure, the only part that makes a grinding noise when the wheel is turned will not stop making the sound. I've given it a few days to stop, but it won't stop. All fasteners have been torqued using a torque wrench. I will install a second one to get access to the front-end Align the end of your vehicle before tire wear begins to become a problem. I have used MOOG parts on several occasions in the past without incident. I will report back on the results of my review when it is complete. I recently put in a new idler arm without any problems. For the new part, you should now give it a rating of 5 stars.
In this case, the saying that you get what you pay for is so true. The one in the car was made thicker and heavier-duty than this one. In most cases, you can simply replace the idler arm "wedge fork" so long as you have the correct idler arm. The original one did not have a grease fitting, which definitely caused it to wear out more quickly. Hopefully this will be of help to you.
For my 2001 Ford Crown Victoria, this product is a direct replacement. The greaseable fittings should be lubricated every couple of months It is rated at 4000 (vs the factory sealed original which had no fittings and lasted 185,000 miles without them), so it should perform the same.
A check of your alignment is necessary! The OEM Ford part is designed better than this one, but it's important to remember to grease its zerks every time you change the This component was replaced along with the pitman arm and did need to be aligned. Make sure the alignment is checked if you replace the tire and your tires are relatively new, like my tires were. Tires shouldn't be put off as it can damage them.
Having used an original Ford idler for more than 150k miles, this did a great job restoring the steering/handling on my Grand Marquis. Installation was simple, and it is a must-have if you are higher than that.
There were definitely signs of wear and tear on my old one! It's much nicer and beefier, and there are grease fittings on the head as well!.
