so, i'm piece parting together a lift for my 88 cherokee.... i've got so far some rustys springs 4.5" for the front, and some 4.5" leaf springs for the back and also some adjustable lca's, i've got longer sway bar links for the front, and allready have longer break lines in. My question is, from what i've read i need to also get an adjustable trac bar? question i have is if i get one do i also need a drop pitman arm, or could i put a drop pitman arm in instead? just trying to get the last pieces before i can get this lift in. I've read there are drop brackets for the trac bars, also ... if i got one like this would i need a drop pitman arm or could i stay stock? thanks so much for the help.. i've learned so much from this site so far!!!! the knowledge here is superb!

 

Depends on your gear.

The drag link and trac bar should be equal length and be parallel.

 

@ 4.5" of lift on my '87 I run the stock pitman arm (along with the RE 1660 HD double-shear track bar w/associated mount.... for what it's worth) and have no issues with bump-steer.

A drop pitman arm does not / can not replace an adjustable track bar.

 

This worked for me also. When I went to 6.5 I added a drop pitman arm.

 

From this morning...
