[FC] FC Idler Arms, For Sale?

[Ken Hand]

 In the 100,000 miles I drove with the 1/8" longer idler arm I never noticed any problems even when I autocrossed the van.

Wouldn't a change in the length change the steering geometry, resulting in 
"bump" steering?  I first learned about this after replacing a stock Corvair 
idler arm with a Moog greaseable arm that looked identical, until you 
measured it against the stock arm.
