Moog EC817 Idler Arm Steering Component

The Moog EC817 is a replacement idler arm designed to restore precise steering control and eliminate the looseness, wander, and shimmy associated with worn idler arm assemblies. As a critical steering linkage component, the idler arm supports the center link on the passenger side of the vehicle and allows it to pivot correctly during steering input.

Key Features:

• Problem-Solver Design: Engineered to meet or exceed OE specifications, addressing common failure points found in original equipment idler arms
• Durable Construction: Heavy-duty steel housing and heat-treated components resist wear and fatigue under demanding driving conditions
• Greaseable Fitting: Zerk grease fitting allows for routine lubrication to extend service life and flush out contaminants
• Precision Tolerances: Tight manufacturing tolerances help restore like-new steering response and reduce play in the steering linkage
• Direct OE Replacement: Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for straightforward installation without modification
• Trusted Brand: Moog is the preferred replacement chassis parts brand of professional technicians nationwide

A worn idler arm can cause steering wander, excessive play in the steering wheel, uneven tire wear, and poor vehicle handling. Replacing the idler arm with a quality Moog unit restores confident, responsive steering. A wheel alignment is recommended after installation.
