Default Pitman Arm Help

Hi I was wondering if anyone was using a drop pitman arm on their jeep? And if I should run a drop pitman arm or just keep running the stock one. Its a 96 xj with 6" of lift. I was also wondering if anyone could recommend a certain brand of control arm bushings or a place to get some good ones. Thanks

Depends on your track bar. If it's been lowered then yes if not then you'll get bump steer. You'll need to know what brand of control arms you have will determine what replacements you need.

Does it use the stock mount and is it a tie rod end on it or heim/johnny joint type. The tie rod end type uses the stock location.
