Just b4 disaster
 
Drivin down the road steering starts feelin funny I pull into the shop and all the sudden My steering wheel is out of whack and not straight I don't think much of it and haul ass to town for parts. I get back and throw my rig on the lift and look at my steering adjustments and what do I find a huge crack in my pitman arm! Would my messed up caster do this what should I have my caster b at for a 7 in lift

Here is a link to one from Top Gun Customz. Don't know much about them but I have been looking at a set of tubular control arms from them. 00-02 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 4x4 3.5-8" Lift Drop Pitman Arm Other than that there is a skyjacker on ebay for $223

checked out the top gunz pitman, thats the one thanks bryce. hey bryce r u happy with ur raptor lift pump? im contimplating between the 100 and 150 gph.. thats next on the long list of upgrades and toys.

I'm happy with it. Had it for 2yrs and not a single problem. When it does quit I will be going with either a fass or airdog though. The extra filter and air separation really is worth the extra money if you can afford it.

Ya that's where I'm at now BROKE! I'm gunna order one Thursday.... So I got a drop pitman off a ford 250 machined the teeth so that it would line up on my steering box I made sure nothing was binding and everything cleared took me 6 hours that shows how much care I put into it... Gunna order the top gun pitman Thursday as well but if this one doesn't give me problems why change it right?

Just a heads up for you on the raptor install, buy a small pair of 90* needle nose pliers to remove the factory fuel line from the tank. Took me 4hrs to install my raptor. 3 of those hours was sitting jambed inside my wheel well cussing like a sailor rotating the factory fuel line with one hand while trying to squeeze the two tabs with the other hand. Tried with my fingers and every other tool I had (all being too big) until I finally said f it and went to town and bought a small pair of 90's.

Hahah frustrating! Will do thanks for the heads up I can't wait to have it in. I wana see wha my quadzilla adrenaline is really all about! :rocking:
