Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have a hilux LN106 with lots of slop in the steering the slop is coming from the arm thats attatched to the pitman arm and then to the (i presume) J arm

Im asking because im going to the wreckers tomorow and dont want to sound like a newb

Its just an idler box and arm, common as to flog out, i think you can get bush kits for them

being a 106 and having a j arm it sounds like the drag link.....

Winner.
You can buy kits for the ends but if the J arm ball is chewed out it's time for a new/second hand J arm. New is very expensive. You can also buy new complete drag links if the link slot is flogged out too.

Give FWD Motors a call on 3848 9323 at Yerongpilly. Good aftermarket gear at a great price.

Have u checked the idler itself? My draglink ends were buggered and i didnt notice the movement in the idler till i put a fair load on it. Anyway yeh go to repco and grab a couple of draglink repair kits mine were about $15 and easy to fit.

I thought the drag links were the ones that went from wheel to wheel to keep the right alignment ?

by the way this is a solid axle hilux

I am quite familiar with the IFS

Draglink goes from pitman arm to swivel hub. Tie rod goes between wheels

thanks guys
