96 yukon with 20" lift and 46" tires

[whitemike1985]

OK I'm am needing a drop pitman arm. I've asked around at a few shops but they tell me they don't make one. what parts change so i can get rid of the steep angle on my steering arm. and i don't wear out heim joints.

For me it would be a simple fix. Do it once, do it right. With that kind of lift your not going to get any kind of correct steering angles. Go with a hyd ram steering and be done with it, Anything else you do will just be a band-aid.

I don't have the money for the hydrologic ram right now and its my daily driver. I just need to fix it somewhat better to keep me from going all over the road for the moment till I can get some cash to get it.

so 46s and DD... smart move.... lol sorry couldn't resist. that is a big toy to be driving daily. guess it depends on the miles you drive. I drive at least 70 miles a day so i couldn't imagine driving that.

pix?

Make one yourself.

 

[God]

get a new DD

 

[kcb37]

I agree with above, get a new DD.
Completely wrong vehicle for a DD.
You really don't have any options, with a lift like that.

Making one yourself is gonna be a good option. Can customize to your needs. Also right on on using as dd bet Prius drivers drop a load when thy see you approach at a red light

 

[whitemike1985]

I bet they do to. I can't complain on gas mileage I get on average 17 miles per gallon. I traded a corvette for it and didn't want wreckless driveing tickets and it got at best 15 miles per gallon. Just recently broke a u joint and it cranked my trans case.

 

[Gzes]

Ouch. Yea ill take a lifted hoe over a vette anyday

 

[zomeizter]

Why not both??

 

[jdpber]

What about a lifted corvette??

I agree that you have 3 options.

1) cheapest- swerve
2) hydra ram
3) make your own custom

 

[whitemike1985]

can't afford both

with i could have a lifted vette

anyone know where i can find a 4l60e trans for this thing? maybe a driveshaft roughly 47"

 

[jdpber]

Junk yard.

If your swapping a new 60 in you be better to swap in a 4l80 much stronger and cost you about the same when all is done

17 mpg...?? Seriously

Gearing will do that

 

[whitemike1985]

Yeah it has 5.56 gears. It gets better than my dad's stock gmc with the 5.7 n 4l80e

 

[More2LifeThanMPG]

Gearing will do that

Wow, I had no idea. I am seriously re gearing now! I'm stock 3.73's with 35's getting 9ish (uncorrected speedo). Now the problem I have is what gears to go with.
