Steering Pitman Arm

[InTheAir-77]

Hey folks,
Brought my "new" 1977 K10 home last weekend.

Prior owner welded 2 original steering arms together to get where they needed - needless to say, didn't work out all that well, busting at the lower end of things.



Anyway, I've found an extended steering arm. But, will I also need an extended pitman arm? Not sure of exact lift.



Ordered my 40s and new 15 inch rims today.




Thanks Gang!

Matt

With out knowing the lift you have you will have to play with it . Get a 6" steering arm and a 2" drop pitman arm and then see if your stock drag link sits level , (like stock) , if not they make drop drag links as well , I dont like them myself but they will work.
The next better thing to do is cross over steering and dont foget about beefing out the frame at the steering box , either way.

Gotcha.
Working on a better way to determine her lift to get everything lined up. She's been abused in the mod side of her lift, ton of clean up to do.

Appreciate the info.
