Since we're talking about idler arms, it looks like I may need to replace my pittman and idler arms on my GEN II. I went over to Kaufman Tire for an alignment, but they're telling me the idler and pittman need to be replaced. I wasn't sure about it, and pretty much assume all these guys are out to rip me off, but I asked them to put it back on the lift and show me...it looks like there is some play. Sooo, how difficult is it to replace the pittman + idler. It doesn't LOOK tough, but what the heck do I know. Also, should I only go with Mitsu OEM parts? RockAuto has some MOOG items (no OEM listed) that are much less expensive. Just found the OEM idler for $75 and OEM pittman for $110 on https://www.mitsubishiparts.com.
