Pitman Arm

Does anyone knowwhere I could find a pitman arm for a 78 F250 4x4? I have called all local part houses, dealers, and autokrafters. Please help.

Thanks

I'm afraid that you will have to scour the wrecking yards to get the Pitman arm, no aftermarket units available that I could come up with when I was working on my '74 conversion. Fortunately, the yard that sold me the steering box still had the Pitman in my case. Good Luck! Steve

yes, when i was doing my steering swap for my '76, the junkyards were full of pitman arms and other parts i needed; it's getting them apart that is always the trick

The only place to get the pitman arm would have been from a dealer as there are no wearable part's on it. Junkyard it is, and take a pickle fork and BFH with.
