57 truck PS draglink

**bungalo** · 12-30-2010, 07:04 PM

I installed your GM PS kit on my 57. Why does the drag link sit a such a bad angle? Seems like the drag link should install from the bottom up on the steering arm.

What pitman arm are you running and is the truck lowered if so how?

Truck is stock height. Not really sure what pitman arm it is. Supposedly it's the correct one for stock height, as per order. Not sure what the difference between pitman arms for stock or lowered application is. Maybe I do have the wrong arm.

Send me a picture or post it. I'd like to see the issue to better understand this Dilemma

Looks like the wrong pitman arm. We sell one that is tapered though the other side. Call us with the invoice # at 800-522-5004

So then the draglink installs from the top down on the pitman arm,and bottom up on the steering arm?

Talking to my truck expert (Chuck @ CPP) we actually want you to turn the arm on the spindle 180 degrees and have the tir rod end come in from the bottom side. This will line you up!
