Egged out 1967 K member idler arm attachment fix needed.

Thanks RedFish, that photo clears up a lot for me being able to see the standard idler arm configuration.

What the hell were Chrysler’s engineers thinking in ’67 with a tapered fit and nut on top of bracket in no man’s land…

After reexamination of my 67, I think I can remove a metal splash shield protecting the distributor which will afford access from above to get a torque wrench onto the idler nut. Access is tight in that sopt with a slant flopped over in the engine bay. I’ll try one more rebushing project, as my welding skills suck, and car is in for the winter, so no trips to a garage until next April.
