If you are replacing a worn steering pitman arm on a Ford Crown Victoria, Lincoln Town Car, or Mercury Grand Marquis, K8688 provides the correct dimensional and spline specifications for the listed applications.

This part cross-references Delphi TA2408 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

  • Excessive steering play caused by a worn pitman arm
  • Loose or inconsistent steering response at the steering gear
  • Wear at the steering linkage connection point
  • Corrosion-related service issues in the steering socket area
  • Noise or binding from a deteriorated steering pitman arm

Installation Notes

Verify spline count, stud thread, and center-to-center length before installation. Inspect the steering gear sector shaft, linkage components, and related hardware for wear before replacing the pitman arm. After installation, confirm steering wheel centering and perform a front-end alignment check as required by the vehicle service procedure.
