2inch lift wo

<< < (3/6) > >>

boss:
that is not true! you dont need the castor corrected arms! they will help no doubt but if you do that you will need wide angle props and all that they will do is improve your steering lock by mms. there are also no after market arms out there that are as strong as the LR ones!

and a panhard rod does effect it as it, will work best when its flat....if you lift it it becomes elivated and angled and doesnt provide as much positive axel location, not to mention it is also twisting slightley!

Disco Matt:
You can also get castor corrected swivels, which might be a better bet as they mean you can keep the standard radius arms and the propshaft won't be as stressed.

clover:
Castor correction swivels are a relatively new develop I  think. For those of us that have been around a while!

But yes castor correction swivels will do the trick. 

scatt:
I was told that when you lift a landrover and dont fit castor corrected arms / bushes / swivels, what ever. the steering will not self center like should until the castor is corrected. there for the steering would give the feel of doing what it wants. Have you extended your brakelines?

wizard:
Just to add my 2p worth.
As Boss correctly stated each LR is different and will act so once lifted.
With a 2 inch lift you shouldn't need castor correction arms etc. Your main problem regarding the steering will be worn bushes and ball joints.
The lift will highlight any slightly worn component, so before splashing cash on things you might not need check the radius arm bushes and bolts, the steering arm ball joints and my old faverite the pan hard rod bushes.
Chances are one or more of these will be worn.

wizard
