Drop Pittman Arm

[Boots]

Are all drop pitman arms created equal? Should any be avoided for certain reasons?

 

Thanks

they all should be avoided unless you really really need one. what are you running for lift/steering now?

Right now I have a Rough Country 4.5" lift with the stock steering. I bought this track bar then I bought the kit; http://www.roughcountry.com/jeep-adjustable-track-bar_7572.html . But the stupid joint wore out after about three weeks :fs1: . So, now they are shipping me this one; http://www.roughcountry.com/jeep_xtras_1079.html. Since the track bar has a drop bracket I need to drop the steering linkage too, right? Aren't the track bar and the steering linkage supposed to be some what parallel?

 

Thanks

absolutely. :thumbsup: you've got one of the rare occasions where a drop pitman is necessary.

 

a stock pitman from a TJ will give you 1" of drop.

I have a pitman arm from a 97 V8 ZJ that is already pulled off, just waiting to go into a box. I believe it drops the same a wrangler. I know its taller than a XJ.

I sell it to you.
