Beck/Arnley Steering Pitman Arm P/N:101-8446
Tighten up steering response and reconnect the gearbox to the linkage with the Beck/Arnley Steering Pitman Arm 101-4505. This front steering pitman arm bolts to the steering gear's sector shaft and transfers its rotation into the steering linkage, turning your input into wheel movement. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1990-1996 Mitsubishi Mighty Max — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
A worn pitman arm can show up as loose, wandering, or vague steering and excess play at the wheel. If a failed pitman arm is the cause, this replaces it — diagnose the steering system first, since play can also come from the idler arm, tie rods, or gearbox. Because it is a front steering component, have the alignment checked after installation.
