Idler arm

I changed the oil on my D250 and went to grease the front end and saw that the drag link had been hitting the cross member got to looking at the steering linkage and the idler arm is about to be a 2 part arm. So I called around local part stores and the moog K7055 was $140-180 O'rileys being the highest and a day's wait. On line the same Moog part was $52-70 and 2-3 day wait. Boy if you want to put the cheap made one in you can get one for $10-20. long live the local parts houses Ken
