If you’ve got a Heavy Duty GM Truck, you know how tough these machines can be. But let’s be real—when you start pushing them to their limits, especially with big tires, the stock parts can start to struggle. That’s where the Kryptonite Death Grip Idler Support Bracket comes in. Built right here in the USA, this piece is designed specifically for those who want to keep their ride solid, whether you’re running stock or have made some upgrades to your suspension.
Now, let’s talk about the idler pivot assembly. It’s a crucial part that can wear out pretty quickly, especially if you’re rocking 35” tires or more. When that assembly goes, you’re in for a world of hurt. The idler arm relies on it to pivot properly, and if it’s bent or broken, you can say goodbye to smooth steering. The Kryptonite Extreme Duty Idler Pivot assembly features tapered roller bearings that bring some serious strength and durability to the table. This means a more reliable pivot point for all your steering components, and trust me, your truck will thank you for it.
Why should you care? Well, play in the idler pivot can lead to some nasty tie rod issues. If that assembly starts to fail, your idler arm can move around way too much, causing drastic changes in tie rod angles. This can lead to everything from idler arms rubbing against your transmission oil cooler lines to complete front-end disasters. Nobody wants to deal with a bent pitman arm or a broken tie rod when they’re out on the road or off the beaten path.
