Keep your steering linkage tight and precise with the Beck/Arnley Steering Idler Arm 101-4451, a direct-fit replacement Kia Sportage idler arm for the 1995-2002 Kia Sportage. As part of the front steering linkage, the idler arm works opposite the pitman arm to support the center link and help hold the tie rods in proper alignment.

  • OE form, fit and function: engineered as a direct replacement for the original equipment idler arm on the listed Sportage application.
  • Heavy gauge steel construction: built with heavy gauge steel for strength and durability under steering loads.
  • Corrosion protection: coated or plated to resist corrosion.
  • Application specific: made to the requirements and specifications for this vehicle.

A worn idler arm may show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, or play in the steering wheel. If a failed idler arm is the cause of those signs, this replaces it — diagnose the linkage first, since other steering or suspension parts can produce similar symptoms.
