Pitman arms are solid chunks of metal and don't wear out typically. You're idler arm is a commonly known wear item. Numerous threads on beefy idler arm upgrades.

Bj spacers and a rear aal or block.

wabbit the pitman arm on the IFS trucks have a rod end on them they do wear out. Your thinking of the crossover steering on a SFA/SAS pitman.




If your gonna get a new idler arm stay away from the moog arm, get the FA5040 from autozone. IMO just as good as stock if not better. Only true upgrade to the idler arm is total chaos idler. Or an idler arm brace, but they only fit the FA5040 arms.

 

That's a TRE in the pitman arm that wears out, not a pitman arm.

those come out? Cus when I bought mine it already had the end in them???? If they do, I just learned something new. haha.

 

I cut IFS off, I don't repair it.

Thanks so much I hate being a noob but forums and people like you help me keep my sanity ! didnt even have to put a flame suit on

 

this isnt pirate, theres a LOT less bashing and flaming on this forum, one fo the many things i love about it

 

ups just delivered my Idler arm in the Mcquary-norris FA-5040 box. Well took it out of the box and the arm has a casting of 555 on the arm . Did i get screwed cause i assume this is a senki 555 put in the fa-5040 box ? dont know how to post pics but its bare metal not black like i see that the fa5040's are .
