Pitman Arm 1964-72 GM Car

The Pitman Arm 1964-72 GM Car by PROFORGED is a direct replacement steering component engineered for classic A-body General Motors vehicles spanning the mid-1960s through early 1970s. This OE-design pitman arm restores precise steering geometry and responsive handling to vehicles that have experienced wear in the factory linkage. Mechanics and enthusiasts rebuilding steering systems on classics know that a worn pitman arm introduces slack, bump steer, and inconsistent on-center feel—problems this forged replacement permanently resolves.

Constructed from steel with a durable black paint finish, this pitman arm maintains OEM specifications while delivering the dimensional accuracy modern manufacturing guarantees. The forged construction resists bending under cornering loads and absorbs impact shock without permanent deformation—critical when restoring vintage manual or power steering boxes to original performance. Weighing 1.75 lbs and measuring 3.7 x 2.9 x 7.4 inches, the component integrates seamlessly into existing steering linkage assemblies. PROFORGED's engineering ensures the ball socket maintains consistent preload and clearance, preventing the lateral play that develops in aged original equipment.

Owners restoring 1968–72 GM A-body sedans, wagons, and muscle cars—Chevelle, Cutlass, Skylark, and GTO models—depend on this replacement when performing complete front-end overhauls or addressing steering complaint diagnostics. Installation requires basic mechanical skill and standard hand tools; the pitman arm bolts directly to the steering box Pitman shaft and connects to the center link via the existing ball socket. Pairing this arm with a rebuilt steering box, new drag link, and fresh wheel bearings delivers restoration-quality handling that rivals factory original specifications and provides decades of reliable operation.
