What are fabricators using for the double shear swingset type pitman arms? Do they just use a factory arm cut and welded? Are there any sources that sell the individual components, or just kits?

We cut and weld from the factory arm. If you look at the picture, we cut the arm right after the splined hole, so essentially we have a nice circle with a splined center to work off of. From there you can build any amount of drop your application needs, into the pitman arm. Dont read into the heim thread distance and such too much, it was all just setup parts.

Picture's worth a 1000 words. That's good info right there. Thanks. Do you sell a kit, or just build to application?

Yikes, We can build a kit BUT rather build for your application.
