How come there are different part numbers for the pitman arm on a manual steering car?
I'm rebuilding the front end on my 73 Duster right now. My steering box is loose & the pitman arm ball joint has some movement in it too. I thought maybe I'd use a box & pitman arm out of a manual steering 70 Duster because they seem to be good shape. But when I look in different catalogs I see that the pitman arm part number & prices are different for manual steering cars. 73-up is different from 72-down, what's the difference in the box & arm? Is it that the spline is different? Is it the length of the pitman arm?
I'm installing a PST polygraphite kit & 1" Just Suspension torsions. My car has 321,000 miles on it. I've had it for just about 20 years...
