Default DROP PITMAN ARM & IDLER ARM 04 Heritage

My current build (#15 over 35 years) is an old Western Exterminators Pest Control truck from California that I paid $2500 for. It's a 04 Heritage model with 95k miles. It was bright safety yellow when I got it with the skinniest tires I've ever seen. I built the roof rack using 1'' electrical conduit. It's used for ranch hand work, essentially "handyman" type work.


After pumping up the suspension about 5'' and adding new tires, 12r-34-16's, I now, as expected, need to correct the steering linkage angle with a drop pitman arm and drop idler arm. The problem that I'm running into is that this model (Heritage) is the last before the new squared off look took place. So essentially when I look up parts, for some I reference 03' models, for some I reference 04 Heritage, and for some I reference just plane 04' models. I'm aware that the steering gearbox on this truck is also used on many other ford trucks, broncos, and expeditions, 2wd and 4wd. Some of the cross fitment charts say that I can use the vehicle information of and F250 3/4 ton 2wd, but some say I can't.


My question is; Can anyone provide some accurate fitment information or websites where I can purchase a drop pitman & idler arm for this truck?


Thanks, H_RanchHand
