Tech Torque Pre 1973 / Re: Idler arm

« Last post by RocketScientist on April 04, 2024, 05:43:08 pm »

I sourced the bush from one of the Aussie Mustang suppliers (couldn't remember if it was Custom Mustangs or Sydney Mustangs) and they aren't (too) hard to find.

A mistake I made was that I replaced the bush and found that the idler arm was flogged out anyway (it wasn't obvious until I re-installed it) and so if you have an old part and the bush is worn, then chances are the whole part is worn.

Tech Torque Pre 1973 / Idler arm

« Last post by pmb0186 on April 03, 2024, 10:28:52 pm »

I understand the factor idler arms on non power steering cars spring back to centre to help steering return to centre .
Has anyone seen this first hand and know where such a bush can be sourced?
Thanks

Agree, most jobs I will do myself but front and rear glass no thanks
I suggest replacing the seals while you are at it and keep a couple clips on hand

They arent hard to put In but its a messy job.  When I replaced mine I got a mobile windscreen guy to do both front and back..  If I remember right it cost me $50.-

Mustang Chat Room / Re: Venetian blinds

I should have mentioned I did buy one of the O'Brien ones but it is way to big. I've had it to long to return it now, but could trim it down I guess, but would prefer a correct one.

Your problem is in the arm that bolts to the motor.
It needs to be modified
