One ton idler arm ?
Hey guys I remember seeing some one saying they put one on there blazer. Was just trying to find out what if anything you had to change / modify to put one on. Thanks for any help.

Synergy Offroad sells an adapter bracket that makes it a bolt-in swap. They also have a full kit that includes everything you need to get the swap done.

I'd be interested in reading reviews from people who have already installed this Idler Arm Upgrade Kit with before and after results, before I hand over the scratch.

So it doesn't actually make any improvements over a new replacement Moog idler arm?
It just doesn't wear out in a year the way the factory replacement can? Is that correct?

The biggest benefit is that it won't wear out so quickly if ever. If you spend a lot of time offroad it is a worthwhile upgrade as most have said it keeps the steering much tighter. Is it worth the price they are asking... I wouldn't pay their asking price personally cause I could make it myself for about $10 worth of steel and a few hours time but for someone without a welder or fab skills it is likely worth it. If you are just street driving tho I would just stick with the moog.

I should have said s-series idler arm instead of Stock idler arm. The 1-ton idler arm is a different design and should last much longer than the best stock style arm you can get.

its worth it if you plan on keeping your truck for a while. my daily driver is a fullsize and it was chewing up idlers every 3 months. finally just bought the giant moog one for $110, been about 2 years and just checked it, its completely fine
