Loominnaughty Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 What in the world is the joint that connects the pitman arm to the center link with the turn buckle on it? Is it just a tie rod end that’s interchangeable with the others? I’m scared to buy haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loominnaughty Posted February 21, 2020 Author Share Posted February 21, 2020 Any recommendations on where to buy from? I’m doing amazon atm, just for convenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I would tell you Mopar but they are now a vintage part but they can still be ordered form the dealer. ZJ steering linkage is a good upgrade for the steering or you can go Moog which is pretty good. Some say crown are bad parts but I haven't had a part from them yet.

JMO413 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I went with the ZJ steering linkage in Moog from Rock Auto and an very happy with it. It's a cheap upgrade and the originals don't like to come apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loominnaughty Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 Separate question, if the pitman arm is worn, will that ruin a new tie rod end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghetdjc320 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Pitman arms are not generally wear items. If it has been modified then possibly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
