Detailed Description
The Dorman 541-144 steering idler arm is engineered for direct replacement on specific Chrysler and Dodge steering systems. Built from steel and finished with a protective coating, it is made to replace the original idler arm on vehicles including 1973-1989 Chrysler and Dodge applications listed in the fitment data. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K7086 and Mevotech Supreme MK7086 for the same application.
