Where to get dropped pitman arm or raised steering arm for one ton?

I looked in skyjacker's catalog and they only list ones for 1/2 and 3/4 ton. Does anyone make a one ton specific dropped pitman arm? I probably need 2" or so drop from stock. I could use a straight or raised steering arm also and just flip the draglink end on top, does anyone make a steering arm that does that? I don't want to use a block. Thanks
 
Here's the correct picture, but the arm is upside down:

You can get a dropped drag link. The block seems to hold up well, the studs are beefy, I used one for a couple months until I went crossover. Never seen that pitman arm before but it looks like it will work.

Have you considered cross over? :confused:

A dropped drag link is no better than a straight one for steering, it only helps the ball joints life, but the line of work is still a straight line from the joint to joint.
A raised arm or a dropped pitman is a better way to correct thing.
Cross over is even better

I won't argue that it's not much better, but there is a slight improvement. :wink1:
 
I use the CA50 on my stock push-pull on a 4"lift. Made a great improvement in steering radius and offroad steering. Not as good as an x-over but it helps a lot.
