Im looking for just a factory pitman arm off some thing like a YJ that would fit the box on my s10. Because it has one with ball joint style end and I need a normal one that I can just use a heim joint with.

They're all tapered for tierod ends. Just drill the taper out for the size bolt you need, thats what I did on my astro box.
By the way if you end up needing an astro box i have one and its already drilled for a 5/8 bolt id let go for cheap.

Zach is correct, but I do have a YJ pitman arm and a CJ drop pitman arm I could part with if for some reason you still need one.

IFS toyotas have the "tierod end" in the pitman arm.... the hole is in the tierod. I'm guessing Johns is similar.

True I forgot about his blazer being IFS, the half ton IFS chevys are made the same way as I've replaced atleast 3 whole pitman arms at work from the joint wearing out.

This is what I was trying to say.
