Having been down this road myself, you have to ask yourself one question:
How much is your life worth? Don't try to "Cheap" your way out on steering
components, buy the correct part, period.
Have yours rebuilt by Rare parts, or search for an NOS one from Mitchel's,
partsvoice.com etc.
The Chrysler part number you are searching for is: pn 2835853

Subject: IML: '73 idler arm (WARNING: New Yorker mentioned!)
> Hello, list,

> The right-side idler arm on my '73 LeBaron is VERY wobbly, so I suspect
the left side arm is worn too. The archives contain posts recommending use
of a New Yorker idler arm and posts that caution against same. As the only
source for the part seems to be Rare Parts and the price seems to be about
$200/side, I am strongly tempted to at least try the "lesser Mopar" part. I
would really like to hear some solid anecdotal results before I do, though.
