Chasing a jimmy pitman arm to see how it changes drag link angle on a vit box in a Sierra.

I'm Central Coast NSW but it's a post worthy part right

Find me a jimny drop pitman that I can buy and you can have my stock one

Shep, LROR have the vitara drop pitman arm back in stock.

That's it, looks like I'm going to have to find it again.
There was a Jimny drop pitman arm on one of the many Japanese sites that I was trolling through looking for my reduction gears.

If I happen to come across it again I'll post a link. Won't be tonight though. [emoji6]

I called a few wreckers today, one asked me whether I wanted the front or rear pitman arm. I think I'd have a much harder time explaining what a dropped pitman arm is

Reading between the lines, are you saying the jimmy arm isn't worth it? I didn't want to shell out for the LROR arm without having a good idea it'd help. I wonder if we could save on shipping if I order two.

I have a jimny that gets a bit of bump steer. Want the drop pitman to try and fix it.

[simobimo]

Sure, like Blkfxx says LROR has then for around AUD$260 (DHL cheapest shipping)

A little BTW, I ordered the LROR unit two weeks ago and got this email -

Hi Simon,

This is in reference to your order placed on 25-Jun-2016. We would like to inform you that some, or all of the items on order number [Order No.] are not in stock at this time. This could be caused by a manufacture backorder, or high volume of recent orders for that item. We are expecting replacement stock within the next 1-2 weeks so your order will ship the day those items are received.
The item(s) that are NOT is stock are:

Sidekick/Tracker Power Steering Gear Box 3" Drop Pitman Arm | Item Backordered

Naturally, I am a little sceptical that I'll ever see it based on this part of the item description -> "We have had customers on the waiting list for years and now their finally BACK!"

I've ordered from these guys a bunch of times before and have been super impressed though...

For all my crying, the unit arrived yesterday. Yes, less than a week after the above and only 3 business days after I got an email telling it had shipped.

So, in the end, nothing to worry about.

Simon
