Probably a junk yard. They are available new as well.

If you want an FJ60 Pittman arm bored for 1 ton GM ends, I'll send it down to you. That at least gets you mobile while you look for an 80 series Pittman, assuming you use the GM 1 ton stuff. If you use 80 series ends, you best bet might be the Pittman arm from Marlin, that has a little less drop than FJ60/62 and comes bored for the 80 tie rod end. I think just the Pittman is about $75 or so.

Got your PM on the fuel tank. great, I want it, not in a hurry. (Looking at 2FE in the FJ60 and that would be the easiest way to get a good fuel pump, and better than a frame rail mounted pump.

Post a pic of the knuckle/steering arm set up. That's kind of critical to your operation here!
