Took my H2 into the 4x4 shop for a front end inspection (heard a noise) and they reported that I need to change my pitman arm and idler arm. Appears to be pretty straight forward, soooo is it?

The parts store has Moog parts in stock and the pitman arm puller for rent (which I assume I can also use on the idle arm). I am thinking about changing the outer tie rod ends while I'm at it.

Thoughts?

 

What ever you do don't buy it from eBay like I did they only lasted 2months

 

I just replaced mine with moog. Make sure they use that puller. In my case they used a fork an damaged the steering rack. They paid for a new one though.

 

I used moog on mine too. got about 20,000 so far on the pitman and idler and no issues. the supplier I use offers a lifetime warranty on the parts which works for me as I figure ill break em again.
