Overview

Show original supplier description
The BDS Suspension BDS083401 is a 4-inch drop pitman arm specifically designed to enhance the steering geometry of lifted 1980-1996 Ford F150, Bronco, and 1983-1997 Ford Ranger trucks. After lifting a vehicle, it is highly recommended to install a drop pitman arm to ensure proper steering alignment. This component works by maintaining a parallel relationship between the pan rod bar and the drag link, thereby correcting the steering angles that can be compromised by a lift kit. Forged from high-strength steel, this pitman arm is built for durability and performance. Its primary function is to reduce undesirable steering characteristics such as bump steer and steering vibration, leading to a more controlled and comfortable ride. By upgrading to this 4-inch drop pitman arm, drivers can expect improved handling and a more stable feel on the road, especially after a suspension lift. The BDS083401 is compatible with a range of Ford models, including the 1980-1996 Ford Bronco, 1980-1983 Ford F-100, 1980-1996 Ford F-150, 1980-1996 Ford F-250, and 1983-1997 Ford Ranger. It is an essential component for lifted trucks, ensuring that the steering system functions optimally and provides predictable response.
