97 wrangler steering box

You will need a pitman arm puller and a 'BFH' as well, a pickle fork is useless for that part of the job. I can't help on the supplier.

pickle fork needed?

Do NOT use a pickle fork on the pitman arm. You must use a puller intended for the purpose. You'll damage the housing on the steering box if you use a pickle fork. That and you may well damage the other side of the box where the shaft connects. Use a puller designed for the purpose. Leave the forks for use on ball joints or tie rod ends.

thanks for the info !

Hi Cal, I just borrowed a kit with a pitman arm puller and pickel forks over the Christmas holiday from O'Reilly Auto Parts. I had to put some money down, however, all was refunded after I was done. I think other auto parts stores have tools to use also. I know AutoZone has some tools. thanks, paul

Thanks paul. I didn't think about borrowing the needed tools for one of the local parts stores.
