Product Description
Steering Gear Pitman Arm Kit Common symptoms of a worn pitman arm include excessive play or looseness in the steering wheel, noticeable vibrations while driving, and difficulty in maintaining a straight path. These symptoms often result from the gradual wear and tear of the pitman arm's ball joint, compromising steering control. To inspect the pitman arm for wear, securely support the vehicle and locate the pitman arm beneath the front end. Look for signs of rust, corrosion, or physical damage. Additionally, check for excessive play by firmly grasping the pitman arm and attempting to move it back and forth. Noticeable movement or a loose joint indicates a worn or damaged pitman arm. Driving with a faulty pitman arm can have severe consequences. It can compromise steering responsiveness and stability, leading to accelerated wear of other steering components, such as tie rods and the idler arm. This can result in more extensive repairs and increased costs. Therefore, promptly addressing any signs of pitman arm wear or failure is crucial to ensure the safety and reliability of fleet vans.Cross References
