After doing some research and since Downey is no longer in business I have been looking into idler arm braces and have came upon a few that I think "may" work. Wanted to ask more of the experts for opinions...

first one

there are a few more like this one but would something like this work on a Toyota or would even help?

Ive found one from sdori they are building some and will have them on the market soon.

I think that Northwestoffroad has a brace too.

I have read that SDORI will be coming out with one soon, but what will it cost? $35 isn't bad if it will work even with a little modification. Total chaos's new idler arm is $300+. Too much for me!

I couldn't find a brace at Northwestoffroad, just a replacement idler arm.

they have the brace not the idler arm. They don't list a price though.

i ordered my brace from north west offroad two months ago and had trouble finding it on the website. I found that after calling them they still have it but the sales rep on the phone said that they would be discontinuing it. It is a nice piece and installed easy. The only hangups i found is if you have the moog idler arm the brace from downey or NWOR will not bolt up due to the differences in design. If you can't find the brace online at NWOR call them to see if they still have it.

Guess I didn't look hard enough! Closed until Jan 4th so I will call to get a price just to see how much it is...

I just checked my invoice from them it was 67.95 for the part and 14.00 to ship. Total was 81.95 to st. louis. Since your in kentucky i would assume the shipping would be comparable.
