G'day all,
I need to take my pitman arm to remove my steering box for replacement as it is leaking like crazy, and the tie rod ends are not that old so dont want to have to change that end of the pitman arm, so I figured I could just take the pitman arm off the steering box but I cant get it to budge, what sort of puller do you use for this, as I'm no mechanic, but know enough to know there are different types of pullers, so which one do I use?Any help greatly appreciated.
