Drop pitman arm

[stephan.laun]

Anyone know where I can get a drop pitman arm for my 75 chevy 3/4 ton...I have the Z looking steering arm and raised steering arm on my truck but keep wearing out the tie rod ends every month or so and it is getting expensive. So figured if I put on drop pitman arm then I can run a factory set up for the steering. Unless someone knows a better idea...Or is using something that works better let me know what ya got or what you sugest and has worked for you.

BTW the double nut setup is not on it anymore that was when i was trying a different end to see if they lasted longer... But they lasted about 2 days.

That draglink is from Superlift. They're junk. The ends are like $50 apiece. Remove this arm and toss it in the trash.

Go to your local Pep Girls and get a stock replacement draglink for your year of truck. Get both ends and the adjusting sleeve. Everything will be around $75, give or take.

For the drop pitman arm, PM Craig Artzner and have him set you up for one from Skyjacker, part number CA50 (I think) and you will be dealing with him at Summit Racing.

Once you get all this bolted together, draglink problems will be over.

well Orilleys ordered me a sa40 from skyjacker but according to my research on the skyjacker site it is for a International so I think there dumb. My plan is to go back to stock drag link after changing the pitman arm to a drop one. Thanx thatk30guy I will pm Craig ...
