Does anyone know who makes a drop pitman arm for a 1996 Geo Tracker with power steering?
All help is appreciated!

With the IFS you usually don't need a drop pitman arm...

Would one from a Samurai fit?

I,m thinking that with the IFS and 4.5" of suspension (2" springs & 2.5 Spacers) I would  loose some of the bump steer with the drop pitman arm and a drop bracket for the idler arm.
Calmini makes one for the samurai when using the Track/Kick powersteering box but they haven't ran one on a Track/Kick.

Thanks for the input.

Calmini has one for the Sidekick/Tracker power steering box.

You cant do that without dropping the control arms the same amount. Steering geometry would be a mess. This is a bad idea for anything that would be drivin on the street.

I dropped the a-arms and diff 3" when I did the lift and spacers so the cvs are at a good angle .The only thing I'm worried about is the angle of the tie rods.the angle of the tie rods don't match the pivot angle of anything else causing bump steer if I am not mistaken.I also made some strut mount spacers.I just have a few little things to finish up to be a daily driver without white knuckles:-)

Thanks for the input.

I actually purchased the Calmini Pitman arm for a sidekick box.....

It won't work on my setup without having to change quite abit, so I have a handy paper weight now

It would have actually caused things to hit one another and cause more issues than it was worth...hope that makes sense

hey there mac500r. can you share some pics? 

I will try to get some pics to share asap!
I'm not real proud of the looks but fit and funtion is pretty good.I used to work in a fab shop and building this stuff in my garage with limited tools isn't the same:-(
Oh well! I hooked the swaybar up last night so it drive pretty nice now.I did a garage job alignment so I need to take it in and get a real alignment.I think it will be fine.I think 31-10.5 will fit just fine.I need to finish the rear lift so it doesn't look like it is taking a crap!!!

Hello People,

I finished the lift well enough to drive.I don't have much time to work on it because it is my daily driver.I still need to build support struts from the rear a-arm drop bracket to the cross member and some skid plates.I got the front end aligned today and put 31x10.50-15 Federal All terrain tires on.
I took some pics of the lift parts I built but they aren't real good.When I get it all completed I will get some better pics.Before and then now!

Some more!
Heres the  spacer on top of the rear third Member.

Another Pic.Crappy!

The after photo:-)

Total lift is about 4.5 inches.I still need to build the swing out tire carrier and hitch for the back.I had to trim the fender and moulding behind the front tires and trimmed a few inches off the front bumper cover in front of the tires.

Thanks for looking!

I'm thinking about doing a 2" body lift even though I'm not a big fan of them.
