After a month of having to do other things I finally can repalce my steering box. Rookie question,what size socket do I need for the nut on the pitman arm that connects to the box? I have the right sizes for everything else. No air tools just a breaker bar.

1 1/4" on mine.

After you take the nut off and remove the lock washer,
for safety reasons, put the nut back on before you pull it.

Otherwise your puller and arm could come a flying,
right at ya, when the arm breaks loose.
