Cataloged for the right-side position, it helps support the steering linkage and pivots with it as the wheels turn. Engine-specific details are listed in the Buyer's Guide tab.
Delphi brings the expertise behind its OE safety technology, fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide, to its aftermarket steering line. Its parts are tested to the extreme: they withstand temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C and are exposed to 720 hours of salt spray. Delphi's extensive dimensional and material analysis is aimed at close compatibility between the OE part and this aftermarket part.
A worn idler arm can let play develop in the steering linkage. Signs it may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, excess play at the steering wheel and uneven tire wear. Have the steering inspected to confirm the cause first. If a worn idler arm is the cause, this unit replaces it, and an alignment check after installation is recommended.
