ID the pitman arm

I bought this from a Ford dealer, NOS for a 1957 F100. It's NOS but not for a '57 F100, which brings me to this question........

What year is it from and what vehicle? The numbers on it are TAAK-3590-BM1, with the "M" being small and in a circle. Also the hand written tag it came with is a B8C-3590-A?. I had a hard enough time getting the thing let alone getting a refund.

The hand written part number looks like the correct number but the part doesn't look like a '57 F100 (no cinch bolt hole and shaft has splines around hole).

"I looked at the casting number on the pitman arm and it is TAAK-3590-B

That casting number matches up with B8C-3590-A, which is the part number for the pitman arm, 1963 F100 4x4 before serial number 380,001."


Hmm, so it's for a '63 f100 4x4......well time to sell it.

Do you still happen to have that TAAK 3590 BM1 pitman arm? If so, I'm looking for one.
