Hello all. I have a '03 QC 4x4 automatic w/ Cummins. I run a 6" superlift w/ 35" Open county MTs, adjustable trackbar, steering box stabilizer and within the past 4 months, I have personally replaced the balljoints, front axle u-joints, swaybar/link bushings and control arm bushings; I also bought my second '08 steering linkage and installed. As was the case with the first linkage, this one is shot again, primarily at the PA and opposite end of draglink; the tre at the passenger knuckle has a little play too.

From what I understand, I need to replace my pitman arm. It is a drop pitman arm, from superlift, with the tre attached from the bottom side. Does anyone know of an aftermarket pitman arm with the correct angle/geometry i could use in place of this one, or, have any other ideas of what i can do to extend the life of my steering? Although I wish I could, at this time, I cannot afford to go with a pure performance, thuren or othe crossover system. TIA!

 

After posting this morning, and based on what i read on another forum, I contacted FabTech and their tech support could not confirm if their design (PA) was any different than the superlift. Was told i could order it and compare it, and, if i didn't install it, return it. However, they also stated that their 4.5 and 6" lifts for the 2003-'07 trucks (with the '08+ steering upgrade) haven't had any issues either. If any of you could confirm this or have had similar problem as I, I sure would appreciate hearing from you. thanks again. James

 

anybody???

 

Lol. Anyone?

I'm looking at the same option for steering, so hopefully it worked out.
