So for Christmas i got a "drop pitman arm" when I got my lift installed and the mechanic went to put it on he said it was the same as the stock one.

Since I had this problem I'm sending it back but what do I need instead as this was supposedly a 4-6 inch lift drop pitman arm....?

 

You don't need a drop pitman arm unless your frame side track bar mount drops the mounting point down lower.

What track bar do you have?

 

the lift came with an adjustable track bar. It was from rough country.

Idk what it needs but right now it definitely needs something Bc my steering wheel is upside down when going straight and I can't see the gauge cluster lol.

 

I'll post pics of the steering wheel and the steering under the jeep when I get off. Maybe that will help.

 

Is it a double sheer or a single sheer track bar?

You need an alignment and to adjust the drag link to straighten the wheel.

 

it got an alignment yesterday. My mechanic told me when I get the pitman arm issue figured out it will straighten out.

As far as the track bar I don't have a clue. I took everything to the guy the box.

I know I should have checked more of these things but I was kind of rushed as I had to have it done by yesterday.

 

Well if you don't know what you bought or don't have a picture there isn't much anyone here can do for you.

 

I have a 4 1/2" lift and using a stock pitman arm, all is good. Need more info on yours.

 

I have the rough country x-series lift. The pitman arm my mom ordered for me for Christmas was from fat bobs and was said to be for a 4-6 inch lift.

It was no different than the stock pitman arm though? It wasn't installed and the track bar is also still not installed as he was waiting to do them both at one time.

I guess I also would like to know if it's bad for the jeep driving it the way it currently is? With the way the steering wheel it's turned and all

 

Undo the tre from the Pitman arm. Find out how many turns it takes for your wheel lock to lock. Then put it halfway. Should be straight up. Then adjust the drag link and reattach the tre to the pitman arm. Dropping the pitman with a drop pitman arm won't fix your steering wheel. That mechanic is a *******.
