What This Part Helps Address

• Loose or worn steering feel at the front end
• Excess play in the idler arm assembly
• Noise from deteriorated rubber steering bushings
• Improper steering linkage support
• Fitment issues during steering service on listed Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury models

Installation Notes

Install as a press-in steering bushing and verify the inside diameter, outside diameter, width, and length against the original part before installation. Because this is a front steering idler arm bushing, confirm vehicle application by year, make, model, and steering configuration before service. For vehicles such as the Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis, and Lincoln Town Car, match the existing idler arm hardware and steering linkage condition during replacement.

Quality Assurance

Mevotech manufactures the MK8103 as a replacement steering component for supported Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury applications. The part is specified with rubber construction and OE-style dimensions for direct steering service on listed vehicles.
