: Well, against my better judgement I went ahead and replaced the tranny in the '72 ($700 including govener, housing and flywheel and tourque converter). I then took it to my regular shop to see how bad the front end really is... SURPRISE! No bad springs, no shot front end, a tune up and an alignment is all it really needs! (I've replaced the thermostat and the upper and lower hoses.... radiator is fine...)
: I DO need one thing tho'... is there anyone who can locate me a pitman arm? '72 I-6 200, Manual steering.
: Thanks guys.
: Oh, I'm KEEPING the grabber hood for Alice and will sell the '72 when she is done.... SOME F***** DAY!!!
We have several down here, but don't know if all the manual pitmans are the same throughout the years.
Don't have the puller though, and my socket is hammered onto the nut on my car. Closest thing to fit was a 30mm. Fits tight, but works best. I'll see what I can do!
