Default Drop pitman arm vs stock question

So I have a Fabtech 5" long arm and I am going to be swapping in a PR 44 this weekend and I dont know the height of the bracket on the new axle since my kit came with a new trac bar bracket. Since I am installing the ProRock do I use the factory pitman arm and then just adjust my JKS trac bar so they have the same angle or do I need to cut the bracket off my factory D30 and transfer it over to the PR? First time noobie question but I wasnt getting the answer on my other post. Thanks in advance.

Did you flip your drag link? If not use the stock pr mount. If yes you need to raise the axle side track bar mount 3"s.

Did you drop the frame side trackbar mount? If so you need a drop pitman arm. If not use the stock one.

I do not have a drag link flip nor do I have any frame side drop brackets, the only thing I have is the axle side trac bar bracket and a drop pitman arm. I still have the stock one and everything else is stock as far as steering is concerned.
