1988-1992 Do not have an idler arm like this. They also have different power steering and brake systems.
According to A-1Auto's own website, the part they show in the video and that they link to is not the right part for the 92 pickup. This guy is doing an '89. Should be the same on an '89-'92. ruclips.net/video/FiO7ixGAbPM/видео.html&ab_channel=Seal-N-ShineDetailing
My only problem is I really need a pickle fork I have tried everything from ball joint puller‘s to tire rod pullers none of those pullers work you have got to have a pickle fork. I got one coming in the mail now but I don’t have an air hammer soo I’m gonna have to do some swinging with the sledgehammer
Is the bracket necessary to replace ??
Does the new idler arm bracket come with grease or did u have to add some grease to it tia
great video right to the point just watt i like
Great video! But first, save a ton of money, build a large garage, install vehicle lift then proceed to this video...
Good video
At minute 1:56 what is the torque spec for that nut to the bracket?
74 lb-ft
Is the idler arm and bracket located on the passenger side of the truck?
+Jason Campbell generally the idler arm is attached between the opposite side of the center link and pitman arm and the frame.
He didn't install the lube hose or even the grease zerk.
Are we not gonna talk about this rusty excuse for a gmt800? Where did that thing live its life? The dead sea?🎉
This guy lost 2 bolts in the frame. 😡 hours I’ve wasted on this job 🤣
To the frame it's not 40 lb-ft it is 74 lb-ft
The 2wd trucks are terrible they have a frame bulge that doesn't allow you to pull the arms without removing the stupid idler bracket. I would assume it's either stupidity or something to do with steering protecting during a crash.
