Price has gone up over $200 since then though. Not sure what magic they work on those pumps, but I can mash the brakes all the way and still turn the wheels. The best suggestions I have, depending on your fab skills; I solved the pitman arm by making a custom pitman arm. I posted earlier in this thread about moving the splines over from an 05 to the 04 pitman arm. I sacrificed cheap rough country pitman arms since this was a temp solution for me as I was doing all of this in preparations for the Dana 60. It did work very well though and stayed on until the axle swap. option 2 I know there is an XRF/Moog tie rod end that will fit the 05-up pitman arm taper, but I never found a definite part number. I believe it is the same tre that aftermarket adjustable drag links use for 05-16 trucks. This would likely require customizing the draglink or the split sleeve to combine the two. IF you have better luck than I did finding the right one. Option 3 is to drill out the taper and run a heims joint setup, offroad style. About the same work as the tre. May not be streetable in your location. option 4 is to drill out the taper on the 05 pitman arm and run a taper sleeve. I tried that, and the pitman arm hit the track bar bolt on left turns. However, that was a drop pitman arm and drop bracket so it may be different if you are running stock. option 5 is to reach out to custom shops like PMF, Carli, ect. and see if they can sort you out with a drag link that ties it all together. The best option is the D60 swap. then everything works. life is better. chicks dig it. the list goes on. [/QUOTE]
