Body Lift/Pitman Arm Question

[Canadian CJ 7]

Hello. I currently have a 2.5 inch spring lift in my 85 CJ7 , I purchased a Daystar 1 inch body lift kit with new bolts and washers to replace my wore out original bushings. Will I need to replace the stock pitman arm once I install the 1 inch body lift which will give me 3.5 inches total. If I do is installing a drop pitman arm very difficult? Thanks for your help.

No....

Body lifts don't affect your steering, only suspension lifts require a pitman arm replacement.
