Pitman Arm Question? - Land Rovers Only

TheWedge · 06-26-2008, 12:58 PM

Where could I get a drop pitman arm for my SIII that I am doing a spring over on? Would a pitman arm from a disco or rrc work from one of their lift kits? Any help on the matter? Thanks.

There's always the welder... I had a cobbled pitman arm on a jeep that held up just fine. it was a heavy duty fix.. Very well done. Solid bar bent perfectly to accentuate the depth of the arm while keeping geometry. welded to the ends and braced on both sides with some more stock cut to match the fabbed part. It handled my 35 inch rubber on lots of crazy stuff.

Other than that.. maybe ECR or one of the other parts dealers/garages could set you up..
I couldn't find any lifted rover parts in a search of my favorite places.

I'm going to call rover RRC and Series/101 guy tonight.. I'll add this to the discussion.

Nope, the shaft is a lot bigger on them. I've never heard of a drop arm for a Series.
