New pitman arm...where to buy?
OK, I just found out that my pitman arm is bad. The drag link is moving almost 1/4" up and down on the joint. So, I already know to go ahead and spend the money on good stuff, but I wanted to make sure which brand has the best reputation.
ECE carries Moog(or at least they used to) My local NAPA carries Spicer, which makes great u-joints and differential parts. The local Federated can also get Moog. So which do you recommend? Moog or Spicer?

For online purchases use rockauto.com. Imo Moog but thats all I have ever used.

I have used both in the past and have had no problems with either. sometimes price will help you pick one over the other. Right now I,m using Moog on my 72.

I can get Moog parts delivered to my door from Rockauto for about 60 percent what I'd pay at my local parts store, and I have a shop account at the parts store with a good discount.

Re: New pitman arm...where to buy?
The Spicer from NAPa is a tad more expensive, so I'll just go with the Moog. Thanks, guys!
