How to install the Pitman arm on Ford Crown Victoria?

Installation of the Pitman arm begins by matching the alignment mark on the steering gear sector shaft arm to the one on the shaft before installing the sector shaft arm. Insert a new lockwasher and nut onto the arm before you avoid screwing the nut at this time. Mount the steering gear sector shaft arm to the steering sector shaft arm drag link through nut installation followed by the use of a new lock nut. The vehicle needs to lower before performing a wheel alignment check and adjusting the alignment if required.

How to service and repair the Pitman arm and associated components on Ford E-150?

A beginning step for servicing the Pitman arm includes swapping out the steering sector shaft drag link and tie rod end if the ball stud shows loosening in the socket or drag link bending or tie rod end taper wear occurs. When performing front suspension steering ball stud dust seal replacement it is crucial to replace the seal when detecting nicks, tears or cuts in the seal. Also skip repairs attempting to restore straightness to damaged drag links and tie rod ends. Steering drag link castellated nuts should be removed first while discarding the associated cotter pins. The first step involves disconnecting the right-hand steering knuckle outer tie rod end while also removing the left-handle inner tie rod end from the steering sector shaft arm drag link. Take off the castellated nut from the steering sector shaft arm drag link before discarding both the nut and cotter pin. A Pitman Arm Puller enables the separation of the drag link while you remove the tie rod adjusting sleeve from the drag link making note of the turns needed for removal. The installation process should follow the opposite order of removal steps while replacing all cotter pins with new ones. Position the two bolts and nuts on the tie rod adjusting sleeve clamp at an angle between 45 degrees and its opposite with the threaded ends on the left tie rod end directed forward and the threaded ends on the right tie rod end aimed backward. Finish the process by tightening the castellated nuts and adjusting the tie rod sleeve bolts and verify proper toe-in along with unobstructed visibility.

Ford Pitman Arm

If you own Ford and want to keep it in top shape, choosing OEM Pitman Arm is a smart move. They are precisely engineered and follow strict factory standards. They are made in advanced facilities that use cutting edge technology. Each part goes through thorough testing to confirm strength and safety, so you can trust it. FordPartsDeal.com gives you genuine Ford Pitman Arm at some of the affordable online prices without cutting quality. Every OEM Ford part includes the manufacturer's warranty, easy returns, and super-fast delivery. So why wait? Shop now and get your vehicle back to peak condition.

The Ford Pitman Arm is attached at the steering gear output shaft, which is the rotating component of the gear that is transformed into the force that moves the drag link and wheels. The company has been pursuing efficiency since 1903, producing Model Ts on a conveyor belt in 1913 and currently battery-powered F-150 Lightnings, evidence that Ford still is painstakingly worried about pragmatic development. These smart EcoBoost mills make a Ford jump over a red light without sounding like the old V8s. SYNC allows a teenager to voice command the phone to play loud playlists or make calls without having to stump their feet on screens. Co-Pilot 360 is looking down the road, hitting brakes or prodding the wheel before trouble gets out of control, and the cabin tech does not seem gimmicky. Highly importantly, steering hardware such as the Ford Pitman Arm has an extended life cycle due to the balanced chassis geometry under the reduced engine loads as well as the intelligent traction control. Some have a greased Pitman Arm in the crossover and others in the work truck; but regardless of the model, you can be confident in the greasy Pitman Arm that the wheel feel is tight. And when it does wear, replacing a Pitman Arm is a simple task provided you do not disregard the rules of safety. Mark the wheels, use stands to lift the front of your Ford, and draw a line across the sector shaft and arm to keep track of the orientation. Unpop the cotter pin, turn off the drag-link nut, and crack the taper with a puller. Just back off the sector nut, press the arm out, line up the new splines, tighten everything, pin it, grease the joint, and lock the steering lock by cycling it.

When performing front suspension steering ball stud dust seal replacement it is crucial to replace the seal when detecting nicks, tears or cuts in the seal.

A Pitman Arm Puller enables the separation of the drag link while you remove the tie rod adjusting sleeve from the drag link making note of the turns needed for removal. The installation process should follow the opposite order of removal steps while replacing all cotter pins with new ones. Position the two bolts and nuts on the tie rod adjusting sleeve clamp at an angle between 45 degrees and its opposite with the threaded ends on the left tie rod end directed forward and the threaded ends on the right tie rod end aimed backward. Finish the process by tightening the castellated nuts and adjusting the tie rod sleeve bolts and verify proper toe-in along with unobstructed visibility.
