    I was able to find a pitman arm from a 2wd Toyota pickup that has the taper the way I needed. I just had to "machine" the Toyota master splines (2x inny) to work on the Nissan Xterra box (4x master splines outy).

    I wish I could mess with it more. Doing a big side job for a local on here this weekend, a 63 swap on a 2nd gen. Then random stuff around the house.

    I seriously was not expecting it to come in 5 days but I couldn't just leave it in the boxes....

    Ordered a motorguard and desiccant filter so that should help out my air until I can get a better compressor that I'll do some mods to.

    Emptied my tank last night and there was at least a cup or two of water in there.
