My references state to remove the steering box from the vehicle, but I do not think that is absolutely necessary. You will need a pitman arm puller and probably a tie rod fork. Use the tie rod fork to pop the connection between the pitman arm and the steering linkage. Remove the retaining nut on the bottom of the pitman arm to steering box shaft. Then use the pitman arm puller to remove the pitman arm from the steering box.

What problems are you experiencing?

Just some loosness. Everything else was replaced. Someone was supposed to replace it for me as a favor, but it never ended up happening. He didn't have time when he replaced the other parts. I am sure I can do it myself, with a few tips.
Thanks.
