Pitman Arm help
Hey New member and owner of 2003 Blazer here.
Had a safety check done on my new/used Blazer.
They stated the Pitman Arm be replaced ASAP
Is $210.00 a high price plus labor?

Seems high to me granted mine is first gen but they are not that much different I paid $55 for my pitman arm and $50 in labor (it was stuck good with a 6 ft breaker bar and 3 240 pound guys bouncing on said bar the puller would not turn and break the arm loose from the steering box) 3 days of that and I happily said forget it and paid the $50 to get it done.(Keep in mind this did not include a front end alignment)
Stay away from the bigger alignment shops look for a smaller shop with a good reputation in your community they are much more wallet friendly and will usually use parts you purchase and bring in as long as they are unopened in their original packaging (an issurance liability issue at least in my area is why they require this stipulation)
