Bring precision back to your steering with the Mevotech Supreme Steering Idler Arm MK6187T — a direct-fit front Blazer idler arm and steering-linkage component for the 1995-2005 Chevrolet Blazer, 1978-1996 Chevrolet Caprice, 1982-2003 Chevrolet S10, 1978-1996 Cadillac Fleetwood, 1991-1996 Buick Roadmaster and dozens more GM cars and trucks (see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full 51-application list). Mounted on the frame opposite the pitman arm, it supports and locates the steering center link so both front wheels track together; worn bearings introduce play that can lead to wandering, loose steering and uneven tire wear.
If a worn idler arm is the cause of the play in your steering, this unit replaces it as a bolt-in service part. For balanced steering feel, inspect the mating pitman arm, center link and tie-rod ends while you have the linkage apart.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does an idler arm do?
It mounts on the frame opposite the pitman arm and supports and locates the steering center link, keeping the linkage level so both front wheels track together. Worn internal bearings let the linkage move and introduce steering play.
Does this fit a Chevy Blazer?
Yes — the MK6187T is listed for the 1995-2005 Chevrolet Blazer, and it also covers many other GM cars and trucks. Check your exact year and model against the Buyer's Guide tab before ordering.
What are the signs my idler arm may need replacing?
Common signs include loose or wandering steering, excess play at the wheel, and uneven front tire wear. Have the linkage inspected to confirm the idler arm is the cause before replacing it.
Is a grease fitting included?
Yes. It comes with an SAE grease fitting so you can relubricate the joint during routine service.
Should I replace other steering parts at the same time?
It's good practice to inspect the mating pitman arm, center link and tie-rod ends while the linkage is apart, and replace any that are worn for consistent steering feel.
