Idler Arm

[Ronald Weishaar]

Can someone send me a pic of their drag link and Idler arm from their 65 Dodge Coronet? I'm thinking that someone replaced the idler arm with the wrong idler arm,

Thanks Mike, Just as I thought, someone installed the wrong Idler on my car.

Mike could I ask one more thing from you, I need the length of you drag link end to end. I'm suspecting that someone used a dart idler arm and drag link.

Ron,
The drag link measures: 20 15/16" C-C on inner holes and 24 9/16" C-C on outer holes.
The idler arm measures: 5" C-C of the mounting studs and has about 1 3/4" offset.

Thank you Mike, I brought this car about 20 yrs ago. It didn't run with the 273 in it. The past two yrs it been on my rotisserie for a year of that, so this info is a big help
