Okay, in another thread I had asked about some steering questions. When I posted that I was going to run a 5" drop pitman, I got a questionable response. Is this wrong for an 8" lift? I am going to be running a RockKrawler lift and it comes with a track bar relocating bracket. the 5" is the one that they recommend....
 
I have the Skyjacker Extreme drop pitman arm on mine with 7" of lift, and I have no issues. Definately helped my steering angles. I have the RE trackbar with HD frame mount. Since this picture was taken, I have upgreaded to the Rockkrawler Long arm kit and I am very happy with it. JUst make sure you use locktite on the jam nuts.

The pics says it all,that pitman arm is about 2" longer than it should be.The angles are now crossing over each other.
