Idler drop arm
« on: 30 January 2011, 00:31:54 »

Apparently I need one of these, not that I know what or where it is, nor will I be changing it  :-[

Best to buy a new one (£80+ from vx), or a "pre-loved" from one of you fine chaps?

Cheers

See the guide for steering idler, and there is an eBay seller does the genuine part for about £30 I believe. Jimbob has the ink going by previous posts.

Usually wary of things like this on fleabay, but with recommendations from here it's all good
