Tuff Country is well-known in the off-road community, offering reasonably priced suspension lift kits that will quite literally bring your truck or SUV to new heights. In our experience, Depending on the particular application, Tuff Country kits can ride a bit stiffer than stock, but then that is generally par for the course when it comes to lift kits. The company's Jeep kits are especially known for being extremely capable off-road, while still offering a decent ride on the streets. We installed a five-inch lift on a crew-cab Tacoma a couple of years ago, and were impressed with how detailed the instructions were, as well as how well the truck handled. Overall, we like Tuff Country's line of products, which also include leaf springs, shock absorbers, Ford I-beam pivot brackets, leveling kits, and steering components.
Q: What is a pitman arm? Why buy one?
A: The pitman arm is a crucial component of your steering system which connects your steering box to the tie rods. When you turn the steering wheel the steering box moves the pitman arm, which in turn pushes or pulls the tie rod and directs the wheels which way to go. Usually pitman arms do not wear out, but on occasion they give up the ghost and a new replacement unit will be required to keep your vehicle steering and tracking straight. More common however, people add a lift kit to their vehicle which puts the steering geometry out of whack. Dropped pitman arms are available which correct these steering geometry issues on lifted vehicles to prevent bump steer and keep you in control of your machine.
