Is the pittman arm a unwearable part?

In: Steering and Suspension

[Edit]

Answer

One end of the pitman arm connects firmly to the steering gear on a spline. No moving or wearing parts on that end. The other end of the pitman arm has a tapered hole. The steering linkage connects to the tapered hole with a tapered ball joint fitting. If it isn't damaged, a pitman arm will not wear out.
