    Has anyone replaced the "steering Idler arm on their Dodge A100? I need the part number and who they ordered it from. Thanks for any info you can give me.

    Do you mean the drag link from the steering box?
    If so, Rare Parts has them. Part number: RP25757-1A42 (from the Yahoo group files)
    you can do a search for your year's A100 on their site.

    Equium... I went to that web site and entered the "Part number: RP25757-1A42", they said they could not find it. I think I must be doing something wrong. Help...

    would steering idler arm be the piece that connects the drag link to the steering gear - yes rare parts does list the drag link - but your best bet would be to find a nos piece - even some who reviewed the drag link over on the yahoo site did not have good things to say about it - oo3

    It means "new old stock" and are very rare although I did find one a couple months ago. I do have a very good almost new one with good tight ball joints for $75 shipped. That's exactly what I paid for it. Don
