Curious about this:

I tried to purchase a pitman arm, none of the auto parts stores I tried carried the part, Napa, Autozone, Advanced Auto, Carquest, Pepboys.

I went to the dealer today and I was told the part is discontinued.

I'm curious if anyone knows why this would be... I still see plenty of these trucks on the road.

In any event I ordered the Moog part from RockAuto..... supposedly it's in stock.

That's because they very rarely go bad. Assuming you have a 4x4? It's just a piece of bent steel, not much can go bad. Add the info to your profile and sig please.

 

This was my error, I assumed the ball joint was on the pitman arm... whoops my bad. Canceled the order and got the proper part.

Thanks for the reply... my info is under the pic btw

 

So, you didn't need the pitman arm, but needed a tie rod end instead?
