I read your thread hoping to get an answer to my own question about idler arms...but how tight should a fresh idler arm be, without it being connected to the centerlink? I bolted my new one in to the k-frame and I can easily move it back and forth. The one I pulled of you have to put some effort into moving it. Which one is correct? How does yours feel?

If it's a Moog type with the plain bearing that resistance will vary depending on the amount you torque the thru bolt. Tighter = more resistance
