Had a little slack in the steering of my 95 1/2 ton 2wd so I did some checking. I found that the pitman arm had some wear to it so I changed it out, now the wheel is cocked over about an 1/8th of the way.

I use to work as an auto tech about 13 years ago before I went to work for a refinery so I know it's installed properly. Plus i've had it apart a few times since. I guess my question is has anyone seen a pitman arm change do this before? And if not has anyone ever got a replacement that wasn't right and caused this problem?

I checked the old one with the new and they look the same but I know it doesn't take much to get them out of wack so to speak!!!

Any help would be great!!!
Thanks!!!

 

anytime you change front end parts you should get it alignment
