Mercury Grand Marquis Center link	Login - Sign Up

I have a 1996 Mercury Grand Marquis,and the center link is slipping out from the idler arm.
I ordered ,and picked up a new center link,but the worn out part was not included with the new center link. I was told by another auto parts store that the bushing,or sleeve that slips over the center link bolt on the passenger side is a different part that is sold seperately.

The idler arm connects to the center link. What is this part called? It goes between the center link,and idler arm.Is their also a ball joint inside this collar,or sleeve? Thanks

Those are parts that come with the idler arm. They are just rubber filler washers.
