I would question the aftermarket pitman arm before throwing the box under the bus.



Good point I assumed he just replaced the box with an existing set up.



I agree. And Dangina is using a Quick Ratio pitman arm that is a low volume speciality item, not a bread and butter pitman that fits 1/4 million cars like the regular ratio one. But I would like to figure what is going on because this is the second time I've heard of this from someone using the box.

I believe what determines the up and down position of the pitman is the taper in the splines. There is not a definitive land/shelf than the pitman hits. It's just the interference between the straight splines in the pitman against he taper of the splines at the end of the steering sector shaft.

IMHO, it's a machining feature that is a little tough to check.
