Pitman Arm and Idler Arm HMMWV

[teteacher101]

Does anybody know if the HMMWV shares the same pitman and idler arm as the civilian H1?

 

[Retiredwarhorses]

Yes....but that depends on the year of the H1. Later models had heavier moog components.
I always tell folks to use a 92-93 H1 model year...but for the most part, yes....

Thanks, I called my local parts store an it was around $500 for the idler arm an $300 for the pitman arm using the H1 as a parts look up! Yikes! Sooo needless to say I'll be ordering them online. He even told me that was ridiculous an to get them online somewhere instead.

Yea, that's to much...I don't buy any parts for my trucks at any local auto store....

Their idler arm is $399.99.

O O O O'RIELLYS told me close to $ 600 for a idler arm and it would take 7 to 10 days to get it! I laughed with the counter guy. Got one on line for under $100 with shipping and that was nos.

Don't buy that $25 pitman arm unless you have a serial number between 246,890 and 299,999. There would be an exception if there have been mods to your steering system previously. This pitman arm fits a different gear box.

I have nos surplus ones available.

Thanks for all the info, I do need a couple more things an I found what else I need an the idler an pitman arm right here in WI at Oshkosh Truck so I'll probably order the stuff from them as the prices weren't to bad plus its kinda local (3 hours away from me).

I have a 86 m998 with the same issue, are all years interchangeable ? I'm seeing them on flea bay pretty reasonable, looks the same...Thanks

No, there are some differences between them. I just ordered one from 86humv.

I am looking for a pitman arm for 1989 HMMWV M998. If you still have one for sale. How much are you asking for it? It looks like there are a couple of different ones available; would any of them work? Do I need to figure out a part number for you? How do I go about it?
Thanks

PS: I tied to send a PM and your inbox is full and people cannot send you a PM until you clear some of the items in your inbox.

The UOC code for your vehicle is found on page 33 of the same TM which is H13 I just replaced both the idler and steering arms on my 1989 M1038 and learned the hard way, when my mechanic said the ones I ordered were a different size. And don't believe any eflea ad that says supercedes all. Stick to the NSN or Parts number.
