Idler Arm Braces?

[Cooper]

Mine snapped stuck in the dunes 70kms from anywhere. Im buying one for certain now.
The bearings inside failed from side loading and basically just snapped the whole bolt+lower casing was cracked.

after 160 thou kms lasted pretty well. Buy an aftermarket idler arm+ the brace and installing once arrived.

Iv installed a snake racing HD idler arm and love it! Very tight and smooth. Been off road and it felt great there too!
Its also greasable so i can keep up the fresh grease too it!
Well recomended!

Have a look at the pictures Ray and compare the distance where the nuts finish on the stud.

Also remember some people have the idler arm brace plus the steering dampener mod so nuts and bolts will be longer then standard

My brace arrived early this week. Will be fitting it with a mate on our navs after the weekend.
