Terry,
In that case I really doubt you need a pitman arm. I would agree on lower all joints BUT probably NOT upper ball joints. They don't normally go bad. I can see a center link, strut rod/brake reaction rod bushings & rear panhard rod/track bar bushings & maybe a steering box.
IF your interested & don't mind & can do some stuff on your own I can tell you how to check those things yourself. Most of the shops don't have the slightest idea about what to look for on these older cars.

P.S. I have another pitman arm that is exctly 7" long & is mostly straight
