All started with my front wheels shaking violenty. Jacked the front end up fearing my tie rods were completely blown out, rocked the tires back and forth then saw the bushing between my pitman arm and what the haynes manual reads relay rod was completely blown out with alot of play in that spot. I figured it would be an easy part to replace but i cant seem to find it anywhere, the guy at autozone was confused so here i am. would anyone know where i could get the replacement bushing from? Thanks!

 

Replace the center link. The pitman arm is just a piece of steel that joins the center link to the steering box. It has nothing to wear out.

 

Yup... the thing that's loose there, is not a separate replaceable part; it's permanently part of the center link.

What I'd suggest is, get a center link, all 4 tie rod ends, and the 2 adjuster sleeves; take the old system off intact, by removing it from the Pitman arm, idler arm, and spindles; lay it on the ground; and assemble all the new parts to match the length of the old ones as exactly as possible. THen drive it straight to the alignment shop.
