One ton suburban question dropped pitman arm
 
I am in the middle of assembling my 1987 one ton suburban, 3/4 ton with dana 60 and 14 bolt. Here is the question. I dont want to deal with cross over steering at least for the short term. every time I look at a dropped pitman arm it seems to be designed for a cross over set up with a 2wd steering box.
Is there a dropped pitman arm for the dana 60 with the stock 4x4 steering box?

The truck is a 1987 chevy suburban with a dana 60 front and 6 inches of lift, It will be running 35's winter and eventually 37's summer.

Thanks for taking the time have a look.

Pitman is only on steering box, 10 bolt or a D60, makes no difference. And no difference in steering boxes 1/2 ton to 1 ton. Only 4wd to 2wd is different.
Anywho, Skyjacker makes them as do few other companies.
Remember, dropped arm adds leverage to box and frame rail. If you haven't yet, get the weld on and bolt frame on reinforcement.
One stop shopping.
