66 K code Manual Steering Idler Arm

  • Is it common for 66 manual steering K codes to have an idler arm that is for power steering???

    My car's idler arm has light blue paint daub, seems original. MPL indicates light blue is for power steering. I was going to replace bushing and hole ID I think is larger then MS bushing.

    It is not common for manual steering cars to have power steering idler arms. Yes, the outer diameter of the standard steering bushing is smaller than the power steering bushing.
