Re: Having Trouble Pulling A Pitman arm.
« on: Jun 12, 2009, 01:22:45 AM »
I have been trying to pull the stock pitman arm off my Toyota box and have broken two pullers. Anybody have any tricks up there sleeves? :dunno:  Yes I did take the nut off. :screwy:
PB Blaster(its what I like) the hell out of it in advance...tighten puller... hit pitman arm down with hammer...tighten...hammer...tighten...hammer...continue until you win
Trick:when puller is fisrt tightened...max it out(or just before you broke it the last time)...then hit arm w/ hammer...next time puller is tightened its only going to turn a small amount (a few degrees) until maxed out again...turns get progressively larger as it goes
