Drop pitman arm for 2 1/2" lift - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just ordered a skyjacker 2.5 inch lift for my 71 3/4 ton 4x4. The guy at summit recommended the drop pitman arm. I oredered it, but it was $90.00. Is it necessary? I am planning on putting on the Off Road Designs heavy duty front shackles that will give 1/2 inch more lift for a total of 3" up front. Just thought I would ask. Also, what size tires do you think I could fit. I was looking at either 285 -75- 16's, or 295 - 75- 16's. I only went with the 2 1/2 inch lift because the wife uses the truck for towing her horse trailer and I don't want it too tall. Any info. would be appreciated.
Thank you,
