Moog® Problem Solver® Heavy Duty Pitman/Idler Arms
Pitman or idler arm stud breaks on vehicles with modified tires and/or suspension
When the suspension is lifted, and/or larger aftermarket tires are used on the affected vehicles, the steering geometry changes and puts excessive stress on the Pitman and/or idler arm. This stress causes excessive stud deflection (movement) and may cause stud fracture, which then results in steering loss.
MOOG® Problem Solver® Heavy Duty Pitman/Idler Arms, noted by an “HD” suffix, feature key enhancements:
• Innovative double-taper socket design provides better resistance to stud deflection
• Full induction-hardened stud for maximum strength
• MOOG gusher bearing technology for superior durability
• Unique Belleville washer and telescopic spacer design provides a secure assembly
• Greaseable for longer life and smoother operation
• Enhanced E-coating for rust resistance
