Pitman Arm Removal Question

Missing seal/dust cover...
What's actually happening here...in the mechanic's world...is you're gaining valuable experience. Same thing would most likely happen to me, if l stepped into another profession. Not sure why l said "most likely"...pretty sure it would be most certainly...if using past practice as a rule. Remember thinking, "hey, l'll represent myself during my first divorce, how hard could it be"...and as l sat in my dark one room apartment (power turned off by provider), with no food or money, with only the clothes on my back...l thought...you know?...maybe l should have hired an attorney...lol. Yeah, l can laugh...now...but at the time...not so much.
It is kind of surprising, if that's a new pump or rebuild, that there wasn't a dust seal on there to begin with.

That’s a good analogy. I was telling my wife last night, “You know, I don’t think I will be a mechanic when I grow up.” 😜. I have a lot of respect for that profession since I took on the Disco and now a Jeep. It’s fun, but my lack of experience has definitely cost me thousands.
in any case, I have contacted the manufacturer of the rebuild and will report back on there response. Overall their rebuild seems to work and function well. Let’s see how they do with customer satisfaction.
