****LEVELING KIT HELP****

I recently purchased a Rough Country leveling kit for my '92 F250, aka add-a -leaf. The web site said I should gain 2 to 3 inches on the front. I installed the passanger side this morning, it took much longer to install than I thought it would, about 2.5hrs. As of now the pass. side is about 2 to 2.5 inches higher. I plan on getting the truck an alignment with in the next week or two to correct anything that I may have knock out of wack. My question is, will it be necessary to install a drop pitman arm? I did research about the ride of the (add a leaf) springs, but forgot to check for info on the streering. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks, Mike

For only that amount of lift you should be fine. Your right at the limit though, any more and i would recommend one.
