Hey,
Looking for a drop pitman arm suitable for a 3 1/2" lift.
This is for a 90 YJ.

I used a waggy one for a while. Not sure of the drop on them. Gives a couple of inches difference, I think

One for a 95 ZJ will give you 3.5 in drop

I knew the ZJ ones had drop but this waggy one came from a mid 80's model. The early one I had was flat. This has me thinking it must of had a lift that was stripped before it was crushed.

well jeez kevin, they only made them from '63 to '93. ;D
i'd imagine there were variances!
i put a waggy steering box on the zj yesterday, the box used o-rings hoses, which would make it 1980 up. the 79 downs used flared fittings. this 80 up box had a flat arm. i swapped my zj one on.
just measured to confirm - the zj arm drops 3.5"

So you guys think a pitman arm from the ZJ would drop enough to handle a 3 1/2" suspenison lift?
