Thanks for helping me out with this.
The idler arm and control arm are two different components. If it is indeed play in the idler arm that is contributing to your problem I have listed links to the parts. The first link is a kit that you can purchase and the second link shows a diagram of your front suspension showing all of the components.

If you decide to purchase anything from the above diagram I would check with Phil at Fastlane first. He'll be able to get them to you much quicker than the company in the links. I just thought a diagram of your suspension might make diagnosing your problem a little easier.
