If you do the bearing fix, the inner portion of the bearing, and the arm brace MUST make a solid stack without the inner sleeve contacting the arm brace (the inner sleeve should have only the presure of the 2 bearings pusing against it NONE from the arm brace.).
That isn't what Axle posted when he posted this diagram on page 9...

The red is the idler arm

The purple is the brace

The blue are the new bearings

The black is the sleeve
With mine, if I had the sleeve milled down completely to fit inside the bearins, there would be a space between the brace and idle arm - which was there in the original part but occupied by the outer flanges of the bronze bushing. So to do what I think you are describing, I'd either have to bend my Idler arm brace, or I'd have to have a new IAB made by someone.
