I could see why somebody would re build a Trans Am Mopar pitman arm joint.

Why are you asking?

cause I am cheap!!!

I have a fast ratio pitman arm from PST that is causing some issues.

I was thinking about going back to the factory pitman and idler arm, but I have the early (small sector) box and the pitman arms are expensive!!!

I figured if there was a rebuild kit, it would be cheaper than a new pitman arm.

Oh well, back to saving my pennies I guess. :crazy:
