Went to swap out the Idler arm, thinking it was a 2 bolt job, and ended up having to unbolt the inner tie-rod, the Pittman arm and started to loosen the anchor from the idler arm to the frame. Problem is the center-link is trapped in place by the oil pan and the Pittman and idler arms come in at a different angle from the tierods. I was planning to swap out the Pittman arm anyway, but didn't expect to dissassemble the whole steering system.
2 steps forward, 5 steps back ;-)
