In the process of a steering gearbox rebuild, however I am having a really hard time with the pittman arm. It just won't budge.
I got a generic puller off Amazon and it was a perfect fit, but went as tight as I could pull it and it wouldn't pop.
I let it sit for a few days with PB Blaster, nothing.
Then I removed the sway bar for more clearance, put a heating torch to it along with a long cheater pipe on the ratchet.
Now the puller is bending open and sliding off the side after extreme force.
I've read these things can be tough, but not beyond what I've tried.
Am I missing something?
