Skyjacker JA500 Dropped Pitman Arm for Lifted Jeep XJ/ZJ/MJ

The Skyjacker JA500 is a dropped pitman arm designed to correct steering geometry on lifted Jeep vehicles. When a vehicle receives a suspension lift, the pitman arm changes its position relative to the centerlink, and this dropped pitman arm compensates for that change to help maintain factory steering feel by eliminating bump steer and preventing interference between steering components and the chassis.

Key Features:

• Designed for 6-8 inch lift heights with a 2.5 inch drop below factory arm
• Forged from high-quality steel to handle the additional stress of lifted vehicles
• Features a durable powder-coated finish for corrosion and wear resistance
• Includes a greaseable zerk fitting for easy maintenance and extended service life
• Requires 3-bolt steering knuckle configuration
• Backed by a limited lifetime warranty

The pitman arm converts the rotary motion of the steering gear to the linear motion of the centerlink, making it a critical component for proper steering function. This arm helps eliminate bump-steer problems associated with newly lifted vehicles. For optimal steering correction on certain applications, use in conjunction with Skyjacker part numbers DA65 or DL10.
