I see that MAzdaTrix sells a whole upgraded assembly, just want the bushing. Where do you turn to for these parts? Thanks.

 

I got mine from a place in Garland, TX called All Import Parts for a whopping $5 for the set. I'm not sure if they ship or not, but that should be a locally available part. Autozone had them just not in stock. Like $40 for the set at Autozone.

 

$40.00 is a rip off I got mine from napa They were under $10.00 a piece

 

If you replace the idler arm, get one with the bronze bushing. Iirc, Moog is the best.

 

trochoid is right.. my bushings are shot and im replacing the entire idler arm with bronze bushings this week.

 

Thanks guys, I didn't bother to think that the parts stores might have them. You never can tell what they will or will not have. I have been rebuilding Jeeps and Scouts, sometimes they have the most obscure parts, sometimes not even the common ones. I guess I need to continue the practice of asking them anyway.

It's quite a switch going from over-sized parts to "undersized". My air compressor filled the 13 inch tires in seconds. Takes much longer to fill 33 x 12.50s.
