Default What size pitman arm?

I just ordered a RC adjustable track bar with bracket and I am wondering if anyone knows how much the bracket drops the mount. I need to know so I can get a matching drop in my pitman arm. I am hoping to just use a ZJ arm to save myself some money. Thanks!

I am running a 3" Rustys. Apparently, the rc track bar bracket drops the mounting point and I would have to drop the drag bar in order to keep it parallel with the track bar. That is why I need to know how much, if any, the bracket drops the mount.

I'm running a 4.5 RC lift so this might not help but I added a one inch drop pitman arm from RC. my reason for this was because the link on my tie rod and steering arm were hitting my disconnects for my swaybar.
