Can’t seem to get the new pitman arm to seat all the way up on the steering shaft. I aligned the bigger slots up and it seem to slide on about a 1/4 inch. Put the nut on but get to a point I can’t turn it anymore. Thinking of taking a pc of pipe that will fit over the shaft and see if I can pound it on further. Is this normal to be such a tight fight
 
Had the same when I put PS on my R/R. Seems like the new Pittman arm splines are a bit tight. I hit the splines on both with a small fine file and some crocus cloth. Off and on about 12 times and got it to seat with the washer and added some locktite for insurance.
 
You trying to put a small hole pitman on a big shaft box?
