The last stock pitman arm I removed broke 3 pitman arm pullers before it came off, and it took a day and a half of soaking in PB Blaster. That was on a 2005 TJ so it wasn't some old YJ. I have pulled about 5 or 6 of them and I have had about a 50/50 shot of them being "Easy." Good Luck.

Everything else pulled pretty well hopefully the fact that it hasn't been in new england long will help

Not shure you tryed this but a good trick is when you think your puller is to the point of braking then while the puller is still on at full pressure try hitting the pitman arm with a hammer right at the area where the pitman arm & splines meet. Has worked for me every time. It just needs some shock treatment.
