Pitman Arm
« on: March 07, 2008, 09:33:30 AM »
Hey guys, remember those stupid old pitman arms, well I got mine off tonight really easy. I cut a chunck out of the old one and  then put the pitmanarm puller on it that I have at the shop. Then, used  the ball joint seperator for the other side, then put the new one on. Steers like a new car, not. Actually, there is more play now.

Lets go see what I can break next

Try this one.  Click under the write up's section, and then go to the yj threads.  There should be an alignment thread in there.
