Pitman / Idler arm steering gear repair
A smooth, responsive steering system is essential for safe and confident driving. Two critical components that often get overlooked are the pitman arm and idler arm—key parts of your vehicle’s steering gear that help connect the steering box to the front wheels.

Signs Your Pitman or Idler Arm Steering Gear May Be Worn
It’s important to catch steering problems early before they affect your safety or cause more costly damage. Common signs of wear include:
-
Excessive play or looseness in the steering wheel
-
A clunking or popping noise when turning

The vehicle wandering or pulling to one side
-
Uneven tire wear or alignment issues
-
Steering vibration at certain speeds
If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s time to have your steering system inspected by the professionals at Raven’s Auto Repair. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to steering failure or expensive suspension repairs down the road.
