STEERING PITMAN ARMS

Solutions for Stock and Lowered Suspensions We provide a range of pitman arms designed to match the specific ride height and steering requirements of your vehicle:

• OE-Style Replacements: For standard-height Beetles, Busses, and Ghias, we offer stock-specification pitman arms. These are manufactured to precise tolerances to ensure a tight fit on the steering box output shaft, restoring the original steering feel and response.

• Dropped Pitman Arms: A must-have for lowered Volkswagens. When you lower your front end, the angle of your tie rods changes, which can lead to unpredictable steering over bumps. Our dropped pitman arms help restore the proper tie rod angle, significantly reducing bump steer and improving highway stability for lowered Type 1 models.

• Heavy-Duty Construction: Steering components are subject to immense leverage and stress. Our pitman arms are forged or machined from high-strength materials to ensure they can handle the rigors of both daily driving and spirited cornering.

Maintaining Steering Integrity A worn or bent pitman arm can cause alignment issues and accelerated tire wear. When refreshing your front end or upgrading your steering box, replacing the pitman arm and its associated hardware—such as the lock nut and washer—is a critical step in ensuring long-term reliability. Our components are sourced from trusted manufacturers to ensure they meet the safety standards the VW community expects.
