It depends on who you are trying to impress, if it's for the benifit of the MOT tester then leave them as they are :D

If you don't notice any difference when fitting them there is something wrong :o  but it doesn't follow that a 2" lift needs them, Tim M and Loyalduke both have a lift without the arms and their cars drive fine, on the other hand RRR is lifted 1" and if light as hell and a bit of an aquired taste to drive :?

It's a question of tolerance, I think for a Disco/RRC it's between 1 and 3 degrees positive castor, and a 2" lift steals 3degrees, so depending how much you had to start with determines how bad it will feel with a lift, the self-centring relies on more than just castor, so some cars feel ok left alone, others don't.  You may also find that a well-used steering system is less likely to feel bad after a lift than a newish one, to put it another way when I bough a new steering box the steering got a whole lot worse, 'till I fitted QT arms.

As a final shot, my front tyres last a whole lot longer now too.
