pitman arm number

I changed out my steering box and noticed the pitman arm looks worn. I had a mechanic double check it. It looks like the truck needs a replacement. The local stores don't have it.

Anyone have the part #? The truck is a 1974 f100 rwd.
Thanks in advance

How in the heck did it do that? :/
Was it being used while loose? :/

I don't have a split-ring "lock" washer on my pitman arm, it's double nutted.
YMMV

Thanks. Yes it had been abused by the previous owner (my dad). The kings look ify too. Thetie rods are so corroded they won't accept grease.

What years used that manual pitman arm? I'll look in a few yards for a decent one and slap a new seal on it.

A few 1972 F100/F250's used this same arm, which has the ID number on it: D2TA-3590-EA.
