First, I cannot locate a pitman arm for this 1978 granada. Interesting that the granada was not listed in the model section above, I know it was not very popular. Second, there seems to be a ball joint or bushing where the pitman arm connects to the steering linkage. Could that ball joint or bushing be replaced or does the entire arm need to be repalced?

Hi there,

The pitman arm will have to be replaced as an item, check the link at the bottom of this reply for the arm.
