Planman is right.... A drop pitman on a Jeep is not ideal. With a 4" lift do a Drag link flip

Exactly. I'd never suggest a drop pitman arm on a jeep that is offroaded.

A draglink flip generally requires at least 3" front extended bumpstops.

It generally does not make sense for lifts under 4".

Each model with each aftermarket manufacturer are different. Some will adjust that short. Others won't.

Give David at Northridge4x4 a call. He will let you know your options.
