whompinxj said:i dont know where i read it, but i heard that the pitman arm from a zj has 1 inch more drop than a cherokee and that you can swap them out. can anyone tell me if this is true and if there is any modifications needed to make it work?
whompinxj said:im on a tight budget and my buddy works at a junk yard so it would be a freebie and I just got a drop trac bar mount so i think that without the drop pitman arm its gonna ride like poo
whompinxj said:if i dont drop the pitman arm with the trac bar dropped will i get major steering issues?
Ex CCS Racer said:It's a direct bolt up with Moog parts from Carquest. Everyone can talk about angles and alignment all they want. It's stronger and you won't know the difference as far as steering and suspension. Here are the part#'s you'll need. It bolts up in 5 minutes.

Gojeep said:The problems you will face only running the ZJ pitman without altering the trackbar angle to suit will be it will pull one way when braking and the other when accelerating. You will also get what is known as bump steer where the Jeep will steer when the suspension moves without any input from the steering wheel.
