ID this pitman arm for replacement
1966 suburban
Has spring over lift front disks differentials are dana 44 I am in the middle of replacing the steering system with a new saginaw box, pump, tie rods ect. The pitman arm was a bear to get off and the tie rod foughts till the end. Finally I had to cut the tie rod off. I used every trick and pulling forking device I could find. Anyways I am having to replace the pitman arm but I beleive it is custom. The burb has a spring over lift. There is a number on the pitman arm B828GMT15 Having no luck crossing this. It looks to have a slight drop in it. It is a pitman style that has 2 holes. Most of what I see online has the pitman arm with a stud on one end. my set up looks almost exactly like this skyjacker set up http://skyjacker.com/Instructions/PI...0ARMS/CA50.pdf However it is not a skyjacker lift. Anyone seem this part number? B828GMT15 |

Re: ID this pitman arm for replacement
After doing some more research I think this is a custom part made for whatver spring over lift kit that is installed on the burb. This was done by the PO. I am assuming the mt15 means its a 1.5" drop. Looking a the arm that looks about right.
Those drop arms are expensive even on ebay so I am going to take the pitamn arm and see if a machine shop can get that stub from the tie rod out. Like I said I tried heating it and beating the heck out of it with no luck. Possibly they can drill it out? |

A few minutes in a hydraulic press should get the draglink end out of the pitman arm.

Re: ID this pitman arm for replacement
it looks like a similar set up to the one from a '76 K20. I had this setup before I realized it wouldn't work with the 2wd steering box.
