i think if you look at the Truturn kit it includes all those parts.

Center link and pitman arm for a stock application. I think Blake is correct. The Truturn kit comes with all those parts you are ordering from Jegs.

Jason,
Understanding:
First, a little punctuation would go a long way with our crowd. Most of us grew up in a time when we were taught in school proper grammar and not "texting code". For us it's very difficult to understand a run-on sentence. Not busting your balls, but I though I should try to help as you seem to loose people on both this forum and Pro-Touring.
Steering:
You can use all the stock steering parts with our TruTurn if they are in good working order, no need to replace them. If they are worn out, or you just feel more comfortable replacing them all at once you will need the following stock items in addition to the TruTurn kit:
-pitman arm
-idler arm
-drag link (the drag link is just a large chunk of steel. So long as the mounting holes are good and not damaged you will be able to re-use the stock part)

Thanks! Sorry but I don't have alot of time! I jump on here on my breaks and ask the questions. I just payed 3800 for ur coilover kit an truturn. I was just wanting to redo my steering all together. But ill look at the syockbparts when am changing over to coilovers. Hope that's a little better. JasonJason,
