Pitman arm question
Looking for a pitman arm for a 1957 F100, I'm not sure if that's the only year or is it '57-'60?. I'm looking for a pitman arm that goes on a 53-56 box but has the hole for a tie rod end instead of the ball...... anyone know if '57 is it or do they run later.
Also does anyone have one?.
Thanks

I believe I have just what you are looking for. My only question is if your steering box is the same diameter output shaft as mine. I know there were at least two different sizes (i have two) let me know and i'll go measure mine.
edit: I have been thinking and I remember the steering gearbox i switched out was a different size but i don't think the output shaft was different. In any event if you are interested in my old pitman measure your output shaft and let me know

Thanks Bill.
I've read that if I want a pitman arm that you can use a tie rod end on instead of the stock ball for a '53-'56 F100 box that it's '57 only. I've also read that '57-'60 might be the same, it sounds like maybe there's a difference in pitman shaft size from '58-'60 .

1957/58 F100/250 and 1959/60 F100/250 2WD with Gemmer steering gearbox is the same.
1959 F100/250 2WD: There were two different steering gearboxes, Gemmer & Saginaw. Saginaw used a different Pitman Arm.
