Pitman arm ?

I am in the process of taking the lift off of my 05 Ex. I ordered a new pitman arm from the dealership. So I take off the ProComp arm and go to put the OEM arm on and it doesn't fit. The shaft to the steering gear is smaller than on the arm. When I compare the two arms the ProComp has a smaller hole than The OEM.

The same part number (3590) shows up for all models. Am I missing something else?

They must have given you the wrong arm. Was the PN stamped/cast, or was there a tag, or nothing?

The part number was cast into the arm and the sticker that was on it was the same. Both numbers matched up to the numbers in the part number search on fords website.

Maybe they made it wrong.
