Pitman arm

[brokenujoint]

I apologize, you must either have a magic Jeep that the rules don't apply to or you don't realize that the wheel whipping around when you hit a bump is not normal. Or you have the drop bracket to match the pitman arm. Either way good luck with the Jeep!

Tis the season for more rum in the eggnog... It'll get you through your cynicism... Hope you get the new attitude you've been wanting. J/K (some people are just VERY passionate about their jeeps I guess. )


Take the jeep out, hit a large dip or speed bump and see what your wheel does w/o you correcting or holding it. If nothing youve got the golden setup.... MERRY XMAS YAWW!!!

In the picture he posted, is that not a dropped TB bracket?

I have to eat my words, my apologies... that is indeed a dropped trackbar bracket. That does indeed require a dropped Pitman arm. How the blankety-blank did I miss that. My apologies.

As I said in the first place if there is a matching tracbar bracket than all is well...

For somebody that doesn't do a lot of Jeeping you seem to think you know a heck of a lot about them.
If it works for him what does it matter what pitman arm he uses, I use a Astro van pitman arm and I am as happy as a hog in a mudpuddle

I'm so reassured that you know how much jeeping I do and how much I know. I will keep my comments about things that are common knowledge from here on out....

Thank you

By the way



May we all do many more of these

what if you are running a stock pitman with a dropped track bar bracket ?

My biggest gripe with dropped pitman arms is this



Personally have seen 3 of them break in the last 18 months or so, that's a pretty bad number in my book

To be honest dropped pitman arm or not, or a raised bracket for the trackbar, nothing is going to fix the difference in length between the trackbar and the drag link which is close to 4"
