No I was walking by with my radiflyer and my tool box... I seen u putting in work... I was there in the rain also..


Koo koo, but i think i need to go back a get that pitman arm, it was hard as hell to take off, the pitman came off and stayed with the centerlink... Im noticing that they different.. On my way to yard to get.. Takin my hammer and going at it
 
Went back to yard to get the pitman arm... Took my hammer and WD-40 and three hits later it was in my pocket and on my way home to install :rofl: .... Took me 30 mins to do, had some power steering fluid here at home and feels much more better.. With the other one it was loose and just didnt feel right.. Made sure all was tight and ran the Bu to run the fluids, no leaks so koo!!! if no rain tomorrow will test drive and roll!! Its been awhile since i've worked on the Bu and felt great!!

Here some pics installed before i connected the return line and hose... Jeep steering shaft also fits like a glove. Actually fits better :mrgreen:
