mantas Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I need the pitman arm and whatever the arm is called that bolts to thensteeringnbox right across from the pitman arm. Basically the arms that hold the outer tie rods and the center link together. Need these asap. Link to comment
mantas Posted January 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 You should be able to buy a new pitman arm, I don't think you should install a used one.I had no trouble getting a new pitman arm for my 620 earlier this week. Whell that i can get at rock auto but still need the steering box arm..... Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 The steering box arm is the Pitman arm. The other one is called the idler arm. Link to comment
mantas Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 The steering box arm is the Pitman arm. The other one is called the idler arm. Ok that makes sense. I was thinking that but evertyime i search for a pitman arm online it comes up as the idler arm. I thought may be i had my terminology mixed up, but im glad you cleared it up for me lol. Oh the internet these days, it lues to you hahha Link to comment

ggzilla Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Why? Ratsun gives you the choice of Blue font, various typefaces. Yet you don't like it? Then change Ratsun. Link to comment
Guest Rick-rat Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Because King Rat said to!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment
mantas Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Yeah that font was very hard to read on my phone. :rofl: Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 It's a matter of conformity. If left to the poster we would have 30 different colors that are harder and harder to read to Just want everyone to be able to communicate and be understood. harder and harder Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 You've complained about this several times before. Why don't you as a moderator request that Ratsun disable the various colors and small fonts? Then if they actually do it, problem solved forever. The colors don't bother me. But the small font size do. Why does Ratsun allow someone to use a font so small nobody can read it? Link to comment
mantas Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Well i find the colors and fonts useful in some cases. Like on my for sale thread i used it like this.... Pitman Arm For Sale - $1000,000 That way the price jumps out lol. Link to comment
mantas Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Well i still need the idler arm.....pitman i'll order from rock auto, come people, someone has to have one...... Link to comment
Guest Rick-rat Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I got an idler arm from rock auto. Moog part # K9058 Link to comment
mantas Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I guess i meant pitman arm/steering gear arm. Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 What's to wear out on the pitman arm???? Why replace it? Link to comment
mantas Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Long story short gofreit fittings that i put in only fit the jeep tie rods.. I found out a bit too late after i had them welded in. Now the arm is useless since no machine shop is willing to make a custom center link for the jeep tie rods. Link to comment
mantas Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Well, i finally got the custom drag link situation under control. Going to use jeep tie rods and a custom link which being made to my measurements. So mods please close this up. Link to comment
