The steering pitman arm (drop arm) is the link between your steering box and the rest of the steering linkage — when it's worn or loose, you feel every bit of slop in the wheel. EMPI's chrome 28mm pitman arm (17-2565-0) is a direct OE-spec replacement that restores precise, confident steering for early VW Beetles and Karmann Ghias.
- Chrome plated steel — resists corrosion, looks period-correct
- 28mm shaft diameter — correct for early-style small steering box
- Includes small tie rod end — ready to install
- Direct OE replacement geometry — no shimming or modification
