Kryptonite builds this replacement from stronger material with a reinforced design that resists the flex and eventual failure that plagues stock and cheap aftermarket arms, giving you noticeably tighter, more direct steering feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a straightforward bolt-in replacement for the factory pitman arm, using the same mounting points on your steering gearbox and center link, so no other steering component changes are needed unless you're addressing other worn parts at the same time. It's a smart addition whenever you're doing other front-end or steering work, since it's one of the cheapest ways to meaningfully firm up steering response on a heavy-duty OBS truck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor guys running a lowered C2500\/C3500 with larger wheels and tires, or anyone who's noticed increased steering play or wander at speed, this pitman arm addresses a real weak point in the factory steering system rather than masking symptoms. Combine with a matching upgraded idler arm and tie rod ends for a complete steering linkage refresh if you're chasing maximum precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a pitman arm puller (a specialty tool, but a common and inexpensive one) and basic hand tools - a job most experienced DIYers can handle in an hour or two. Torque to factory spec and check your steering wheel centering afterward.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kryptonite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58145154007200,"sku":"KR-DEATHGRIP-C2500C3500","price":239.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9720\/2848\/files\/KR6654r_2_2000x__40606.1754606669.png?v=1783270001","url":"https:\/\/obsrevivalparts.com\/products\/kryptonite-death-grip-pitman-arm-1988-2000-chevy-gmc-c2500-c3500","provider":"OBS Revival Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
