So I bent my pitman arm on my 2011 JK. Question is, will an LJ rough country pitman arm work for the time being on my jk, it's a bit shorter than my rough country one I have now. They're both for 4-6" lifts..

Remove the trackbar bracket, reinstall the stock pitman, add an adjustable trackbar.

(no idea if a LJ pitman arm will fit the JK shaft... )

I dont see a bend unless you are referring to the 4" drop which is as it should be. Ditch the drop pitman arm, reinstall factory and invest in a proper flipped drag link

Guy at the shop said it was bent, nothing noticeable to me, I just ordered a new drop pitman. Here's the paper he gave me at the tire shop

You could have called rough country and they would have replaced it for free. They have lifetime a warranty.

What on the alignment sheet indicates a bent pitman arm?

I see the gouge in the second pic, from coming down on a rock? Is the 'twist' in the third pic just the camera angle, or is that what he was talking about? Wouldn't be a bad idea to inspect the shaft and splines while you have the pitman off to make sure there is no damage there.

How does it handle with the caster at 2.3/2.8? It might be time to invest in some form of caster correction.
