CUTLASS Help need a Pitman Arm

[old80cs]

I bought a new power steering box from Rock Auto, USA Standard Gear , ZSG7560 with 26 spline input and 32 spline out.
This box has the 4 bolt cover over the sector shaft, my original box has the snap ring cover over the sector shaft and I wanted to upgrade to the box with more adjustability going forward. Problem is my original pitman arm (#7828463) will not fit the new box output shaft. Too small by about an 1/8”. Could anybody help me find a part number for the pitman arm I need? I want to keep the steering all OEM for ease of sourcing replacement parts. The input spline count fits my new rag joint just fine. Any help finding the right pitman arm would be appreciated!

These are my original parts:

Thank you very much, I was hoping you might happen by and have a look through your parts books for me. I appreciate the help! 👍

I didn’t even have to look it up. That scares me a little.

No luck finding a GM arm but found a thread on GBF that subs an aftermarket arm from Allstar Performance- ALL56357.​

Thanks again! 👍

It appears that one should work. As long as it’s for a G-body 800 series box. Other body styles are too long or too short.

Pitman arm you need is GM p/n 7837648. Discontinued from GM, but you run across them every now and again. Or if you're in the j/y and run across ANY 800 series box in a G-body with the arm still attached. Bring a pitman puller though.

Per usual, Longroof79 is right again. Summit sells an aftermarket. $45

That's the one I bought to go with a Jeep box but it's still on the floor.
