I got a new idler arm so I can replace mine since it looked like it had some play. But when I received the part and jacked up the car to take the old one off the new one looks different. Mine has the castle nut on top and the new one wants me to bolt it towards the bottom. Has anyone else run into this problem? And if so what did you do? Will post picture.of what mine looks like. And the new I got.
