Idler Arm Failure

RedFish said
I'm thinking there's a cause there somewhere that you haven't found yet.
Is the hole in the draglink wollered out ?
Is the draglink bent ( different from what it should be ) ?
I guess I would attach a new idler arm at that center link end and operate the steering lock to lock. See if the other end stays fairly well aligned with the through bolt clips on the K.

New part already installed and has 100 miles on it, everything works great. Nothing is wollered. I am going to switch to a different type of chassis lube and see what happens. I am thinking Valvoline VV279, synthetic blend multi-purpose grease with moly. It has a high working temp and is an extreme pressure lubricant.
