Power Steering Pitman Arm

Hi everyone, I am looking to buy a PS pitman arm for my '71 CS. I am upgrading from manual steering to power steering. I feel like there should be plenty out there without spending the $50 that Summit wants me to pay for a new one. Thanks in advance.

Pitman arms don't normally wear? Why are you looking gor a replacement?

Manual and power pitman arms are different. The output spline count & or diameter differ. Unfortunate that GM didn’t standardize this back in the day. Have seen quite a few used ones for pretty much the same price of the Summit one you mentioned. Supply has dried up - these cars are not coming into the pick it yards anymore. I’ve got a bucket of pitman arms but most are Manual steering. Can look, though.
