Re: Shortening the pitman arm for a dropped axle?

It probably had a Heim on it and to me they wear a bit fast for automotive use on a vehicle you plan to drive a lot.

Checking on Sid's site to remember how he does it he reworks the steering arm so that a tie rod end will go in from the bottom side effectively dropping the front of the drag link down pretty level https://www.droppedaxles.com/other-p...0Chevy%20Parts A guy cold do that on his own with a bit of effort but it may be a well spent 100 bucks when push comes to shove.
