How far is your toe off?

probably put the stock pitman arm back on this weekend, i need to get a pitman arm puller from the parts store. ohhhhh it was dw shook till i could stop and got worse around 10 MPH ( till i could pull off the side of the road ) . it was like my tires were battling for position

Wow... that's not good. Don't buy it; just go down to Autozone or O'Reilly's and rent it. TORN had mentioned that some of these stores may also sell used pullers for around $15 - $20. Worth looking into - it's just not a tool that'll get a lot of use.

Is this something Harbor Freight might have?

The question is, was the tool even worth $14 dollars
