Instructions for PITMAN ARM:
1. Remove cotter pin and loosen nut on drag link at the end by the pitman. Now remove the nut
and lower drag link down out of the way.
2. Unbolt the nut holding the pitman arm on the output shaft of the steering sector. Using a pitman
arm puller, remove the original arm and replace with the new drop pitman arm. Install the origi-
nal lock washer and nut, then tighten.
3. Reinstall the drag link in the end of pitman arm. Put the nut back in the drag link stud end, then
tighten securely and be sure to reinstall the cotter pin.
4. Recheck installation and tighten the nuts after driving approximately 50 miles, again after the
next 100 miles. Continue to periodically check the nuts on the pitman arm and drag link.
NOTE: Before driving, double check all nuts that have been loosened to be sure that they are tight
and that the cotter pins are installed.
