Description

Help keep your steering linkage tight and responsive with the SKP Idler Arm SK6534, an OE-style replacement designed to support the steering center link as it moves with every turn of the wheel. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

The idler arm pivots from its mounting point and holds one end of the center link. It works opposite the pitman arm to keep the linkage at the proper height and angle, so steering input can travel evenly to the tie rods and wheels.

OE-style design: follows the original style for easy replacement and fitment.
Quality build: made with high-quality materials.
Direct fit: a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.

Signs a 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 idler arm may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, extra play in the steering wheel, clunking when turning or driving over rough pavement, and uneven tire wear. Other steering and suspension parts can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. If a worn idler arm is the cause, this part replaces it. A wheel alignment check is recommended after any steering linkage work.
