Castor Correction Radius Arms - Why?

(1/4) > >>

Disco Bristol:
I have put a 1.5" lift on my disco. Do I need Castor Correction Radius Arms? I am planning an expedition trip which will probably lower the Disco by 1.5" with the weight of all the kit.

I would say that you don't need them, I put a 2" lift on my 90 & decided to wait before I bought cc arms to see how it drove, & its fine without them, the difference is minimal as far as mine goes.

Disco Bristol:
If there was a difference what is likely to be??? How would handling change?

defenderdan:
If your vehicle drives fine then no you don't need them from a castor correction piont of view. I only have them because they are cranked and therefore make life easier on the bushes and aid articulation. :)

defenderdan:
If anything your steering would feel a bit light and might not centre itself quite as well as it used to. A 1.5 inch lift isn't really enough to start giving these problems though. :)
