Hi All,

I'm replacing the tie rods and center link rod in my 1970 142. The bolts are kinda bent and require me to remove the idler and Pittman arms to get them out. I got the idler arm out okay, but had a question about the Pittman arm. Do I simply remove the big nut on the bottom of the steering box and yank the arm off? If so, does anyone know the size of the nut holding the Pittman arm to the steering box? It's really big, so I'll have to make a special trip to buy the right socket and want to get it right.

Many thanks!
