F-150 Steering Squeak - Pitman Arm Replacement
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Here is a pitman arm replacement on a 1997 F-150 4x4. The pitman arm removal tool initially would not budge the stuck arm. After lots of persuasion, eventually the puller was able to do the trick albeit at an angle. Thanks for watching DWG!

Grease fittings are the way to go. Good work 🤙🏻
I have a oil leak in my 2008 g35x assuming the cover valve gasket if I said that right so I’d love to watch you do that !!

That’ll be coming in the next month or so. Stay tuned!
Why not just take the 3 bolts holding the gearbox off to slightly turn the gearbox to install pitman arm puller? Saves a lot of time and energy

That's not how I've seen it done before, but may well work. Thanks for watching.
Watching that 8:40 segment makes me so thankful for ratcheting wrenches.

No kidding! Too bad I don’t have one that’s 1 5/16”. Thanks for watching!
I really didn't think the pitman puller would work...I tried prying and broke the lid of the steering box :( got fluid everywhere. Warning, use the pitman puller! Nice work, what a b*****!

Sorry to hear that. I couldn’t get the pitman puller to work originally. Once the other “techniques” were exhausted I went back and made it work. Cutting through the arm was the ticket. Not a fun job, took a lot of patience! Thanks for watching DWG.
Pb blaster?
