Yes: the new design is much beefier, the tie rod end has been move in about 2.5 inches but on the same plane as the original position, we just moved it in so they would fit with the 15 inch wheels. You can remove the original adjustment end off of the steering rod which is also about 2.5 inches, making room for the additional length of the new arm. We supply a coupling with reverse threads on the heim joint and threads that match the original steering rod so you can fully adjust the toe by turning the coupling.
Change out from originals no problem
As for pitman arm, I'm just an old street rodder, couldn't come up with a better name for the extension.
