    My idle arm that originaly was on the car made the steering very loose and the bushing were totally dry rotted. So i had to replace the bushings.... Now im faced with a problem, i had someone punch the bushings out and put new ones in, but the one bushing was for a mustang, becasue the "maverick" bushing wouldnt fit. The mustang bushing was longer so i cant screw the nut on far enough to lock it. Soooooo i bought a whole new idle arm which now-a-days is toally diffrent. and the end with the bolt, has no bushing, and if i screwed it on the peice thats supposed to stay in place would be flapping around loose.....

    if anyone has a clue what im talking about, do you have any suggestions? (i can take pictures also if needed)

    and maybe someone has a peice car and can hook me up with a idle arm, since they arnt a high demanded part :D :D
