RE: steering box

Welcome to CF! :)
Tricks? :eek:Well.....a gear puller to get the pitman arm off of the steering box shaft. Use some penetrating oil too. Sometimes they need a little help to break 'em loose. Light taps from a brass head hammer will helppersuade it to move.
Hope this helps! ;)

Oh ya,.....take the pitman arm retaining/clamping bolt all the way out.
