Some people will try to remove a Pitman Arm from the Sector Shaft of the steering box with a 2 or 3-jaw gear puller. These will generally not work on a Pitman Arm because the edges of the arm are rounded and the jaws of a gear puller tend to spread and slip off of the arm.
Since it usually takes a great deal of effort to get a Pitman Arm off of the tapered splines of the Sector Shaft where it may have been attached for over thirty years , it is best to use the right tool. Below are two examples of a dedicated Pitman Arm Puller.
The one on the left is the most common and can usually be borrowed or rented from someone like Autozone or Chief Auto Parts. It will remove most Pitman Arms from the Ssteering box shaft.
Occasionally, a Pitman Arm is so tight on the sector shaft that the standard puller jaws will spread or break. For this reason there is a heavy-duty Pitman Arm Puller like the one on the right.
The jaws are movable and can be adjusted inward for maximun grip on the Pitman Arm. If you do not have access to one of these tools, it is easy and inexpensive to buy them from someone like Harbor freight. Listed below are the part numbers and prices of these tools. They can also be used to remove other parts from the centerlink without damage.
This handy tool is a 2-jaw puller that is designed to keep the jaws from spreading and slipping off of the centerlink. It acts like a press and pushes the studs out - usually with a sharp pop.
