Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have got a sierra with 1.6EFI including power steering with mercedies hi steer. when it was installed it was not straight so have good lock left but shit lock right. I am having a shit of a time trying to get the pit arm off the p.s box. would normaly just heat with the oxy but i dont want to wreck the seals in the p.s box. does any one have any help?

Mine is exact same. I have tried massive pullers. Hand Hydraulic puller and hammer to no conclusion.

If i get picky(which i do sometimes) i might cut the arm off the spline, or cut so it at least expands over the spline. And go buy a new one. Simple.

get a bigger hammer?

go to super crap or repco bursons ect and buy a pitman arm puller.
they are under $50 and you can't wreck the box.

My stock pitman arm was too small for the ones supercheap sold so I ended up using a 3 jaw gear puller

super crap one fitted mine

I have broken 2 super cheap pitman pullers. I had to cut mine off with a dremal. Standard pitman arms can be very hard to find.

I have a standard pitman arm in the cupboard it any one wants it. Will have a 3" dropped sierra arm for sale soon when I do power steer

My tools werent just any super crap! Top industrial JBS 3 jaw hand hydraulic bearing puller! Still no budge!

Next will be a full hydraulic puller! Probably rip the whole shaft out of the box then! Fark!

got it off last night. Used a 2 jaw puller got it nice and tight then using a old axle shaft as a drift gave the pit arm a couple of solid hits around the outside with a 1.5kg hammer. dropped straight off. I tried using a three jaw puller originaly but it would not pull straight so i gave up on that idea.
