What is your question?
I hit a curb to aviod an accident, and I believe my alignment is off. I'm taking it to the shop tomorrow, but I'm concerned my pitman/ steering arm may need replacement. Do you know about how much that part would cost without labor? Thank you!

This car has rack and pinion steering and does not have a pitman arm. You have your steering shaft from the steering wheel to the steering gear. You have tie rod ends that connect the gear to the steering knuckles at each front wheel. You could have a bent tie rod end, or even a bent suspension component. A good shop will detect the failure. If nothing is bent, the angle could be out, and can be corrected. Curbs are tough on cars, of course, but sounds like it ended up better than an accident! Good luck.
