WARNING: Compare the splines count and dimensions of this pitman arm to the sector shaft to insure that it is the
proper replacement part. The sector shaft nut must be torqued to the vehicle torque specs. Failure to properly
torque the nut may cause component failure and subsequent loss of vehicle control. Refer to the factory service
manual for all steering component torque specifications.
Use a pitman arm puller to remove the OE pitman arm. Mark orientation of pitman arm on sector shaft prior to
removal. The threads of the sector shaft and the sector shaft nut must be cleaned of all factory dry adhesive.
DO NOT
use a torch to heat the pitman arm to remove it! The arm is very close to the steering box seals and you
will probably burn the seals before the pitman arm comes loose. Use the proper tools!
Apply thread lock compound to threads of the sector shaft nut. Hand tighten sector shaft nut then tighten only with
a torque wrench. DO NOT
use an impact wrench to tighten the sector shaft.
