Hi Guys
I noticed my drop down pitman seems loose, like maybe the splines are bad.
I cant find the part on line, and the local parts store doesnt have any information to help me, nor the part.

I lifted up the front end and moved the tire and I noticed slack in the pitman arm. Any help would be great. I need a new part, and hopefully not a new power steering box as well. Here is a pic of the arm. (Hopefully the attachment went through)

Thanks again for any help.

its a tapered fit, it presses to the box, can you tighten it, or is the slop coming from the box, sometimes you can mistake a loose box/to frame for a loose part.

 

Thank you for the help!
It is very tight. Yet has slop or movement where the spines align.
Wondering if a couple washers might help.
Talked with Dodge, and through them, the part costs 185 bucks
But better than driving down the road and experiencing total steering failure.
Thanks again

 

A while back I had to replace a cracked power steering box "mounting bracket" (that bolts to the frame) I just checked it all and everything is good and tight. Thanks for the question
