Where to get bushing for the 555 idler arm
Ive attempted to use bushing from the dealership "19mm" but they are about 1mm to small. I have some on order from AZ so ill find out about them tomorrow at 3.
From what ive found 555 idler arm came from AZ selling them for the 4wd pickups even though its for the 2wd. i measured 20mm on the shaft. maybe 19.5mm as stated on 4crawler.

i thought this whole 555 Idler Arm was just a internet legend .
Like they were only sold for a short time.
I know I never saw any in person.
You might need to have your bushings custom made
Any decent machine shop could make them if they do small jobs

I believe the "legend" was the Duralast idler arm, which was the thickest one.
I would personally just slap a cheap idler on there temporarily and contact one of the vendors and see if you can get a set of brass bushings for your Sankei idler. Then they'll never wear out.
