When is a drop pitman arm required?
Hi,
I have a 77 1/2 ton F150. It has about 4 or 5 inches of suspension lift. Should I ad a dropped pitman arm? What is the advantage to the dropped arm?
Thanks for your time,
John Thomas

John,they sell the drop arms at Jeffs Bronco Graveyard,they suggest you use them on lifts of three inches or more .They are needed to keep the steering geometry working correctly.A drop bracket for the trac bar is used also on the higher lifts.
