[QUOTE="S.McArthur, post: 420705, member: 17022"] Howdy folks, I need some help identifying some JK parts for a co-worker. I am TJ guy, so I need to confirm some differences between the JK/TJ components to provide a list of parts. The guy has death wobble, I know how to fix, but I need to identify the pitman arm if it it a drop or not. Looks to be an RC lift, maybe 2.5". Every joint in the steering is super duper loose; drag link, tie rods, etc., to the point they are [S]probably[/S] junk. He said the Ball joints are new, I didn't test them. As of now, my recommendations are: 1: Remove RC dual stabilizer mount and raised TB mounts. Put track bar & stabilizer shock back in it's original place. [ATTACH type="full"]113714[/ATTACH] 2: New trackbar. RC TB has seized adjustable joint, bushing looks...well like most RC bushings do. 3: New drag link & tie rod. (Brand?) I like my Currie (RockJock) currectlync for the TJ 4: Is this a DPA, or does this come stock? It sits lowers than the TB mount. [ATTACH type="full"]113715[/ATTACH] As for now, that is where I'm starting, once I get it in the shop I'll check the hubs/ball joints and toe-in. Biggest concern right now is identifying if the pitman arm is a stock arm or DPA. [/QUOTE]
