Idler Arm - Recall????

Has anyone had problems with a bad idler arm? While getting my truck aligned AFTER a lift install, the tech noticed my idler arm was bad. The truck has only 6000 miles!!! I have not been off-road or any severe driving. He said I will have a tough time getting them to cover under warranty since I have installed the lift. We'll see about that...

no specific comment as to what is exactly wrong. But you just had a lift installed......wonder if the"tech" is anyway related to the bad radial arm?.

Hmm, how could he have ruined it? Any ideas? Wouldn't it be from either wear, a severe blow to the front end or just a bad part?
