The Pitman Arm of GMC Jimmy vehicles is involved in changing rotary movement to linear movement, which enables the steering action. This mechanical component joins the steering box's sector shaft to the drag link so that the angular movement of the previous part will convert to the straight movement required to rotate the wheels. Since the current comes from the Pitman arm, it has to be supported as well as the sector shaft to be able to give the car the right height that the idler arm should provide it with. Their form evolution shows that earlier types were made of wood while the later types are made from steel with ball joints and bearings. Another very relevant problem related with the wear of the ball joint is the steering play in the Pitman arm and to eliminate this type of problems, it is always advised to do regular checking of the car parts so as to provide the optimal drive on the roads.
