Where to get pitman arm?

I have a gm vega steering box and I'm looking for a flat pitman arm for it. It has 1" shaft on the box and needs the tapered end on the other side. I believe it is 7 degree taper.

 

I think Speedway sells them, Tim Jones

 

They do but I need one to fit a stock gm box

 

If I remember correctly you can put the stock arm in a press and make it straight. Maybe some others will chime in.

Thanks hrp from what I'm told that should fit.

 

Did for me. HRP

 

I think MBM/Pirate Jack may offer one also for less money. We're a dealer for them i'll dig through and see if I can find it...ken...

 

Pete & Jakes has Em'

 

p&j fits a box with 1 1/8 shaft not 1"

 

i've never seen two different size splines on Vega steering boxes

or are you talking about a Mustang box?

 

Where are you measuring that 1"? Could you post a picture of the box?

 

It is a vega box if you look in p&j catalog at there arms it says 1 1/8" and shows you were to measure and that is what I did. I'm starting to think that one only fits p&j boxes.

 

you are looking at their instructions on measuring a Mustang steering box

what box do you really have? you better post some pictures

That pitman arm can be modified; Judicious use of heat, PATIENCE, and a press. Allow it to cool slowly. I packed mine in sand, to allow slower cooling.

the larger shaft deal could possibly be for a vega hd box....which is a 525

 

FWIW, steering box rebuilders have barrels full of used arms. In LA, they get about 25 bucks for one. Is there a rebuilder near you? You'd be surprised how much stuff crosses over when you go through the barrels.

 

Better with some photos ,

Yes I was reading the mustang steering box and not the vega. Sorry and thanks for all the help.
