Body lift Jimmy 04 1.3 help

Do you mean the bump stops or the spring seat isolation pads?

Castor correction on a 50mm lift seems to be entirely dependent on the specific vehicle and the driver. For some people it is not a problem for others it removes the self centering of the steering and promotes vagueness and even death wobble. Try it without first and see how it feels.

1. On trolling threw the facebook jimny groups i noticed someone doing a 2" lift and asking if he should put the rubber cones back in on top of the lift kit when i took my plastic 1.5 inch lift spacers out of my spring i did not have any rubber cones to put back in will i need these please.

2 will i need to buy castor correction bushes for the front radious arms

Thx in advance

1. Yes - the spring seats are there to stop metal on metal contact, i.e. the spring in the chassis cup, so there should be a rubber "cone" on the top of each spring, or rather in the chassis cup...

2. As per Lambert's reply... it all depends on the actual lift you get from the advertised 2" lift kit... some need castor correction, some dont... the trailmaster kit for instance, I feel is a conservative 2" lift Many people report more than a 2" lift, as when you fit a lift kit you are replacing an old tired sagged spring with a new heavier duty one... As Lambert says, best way is to fit the springs and take it out for a drive, see how it feels to you... if it wanders lane to lane, feels vague, or wobbles... you'll decide you may need castor correction (offset bushes or new arms)...

I'm pretty sure he's asking about the 8 body mounting rubbers ??
These fit between body and chassis YES you will need them in

But i could be miss understanding

Sorry guys my fault it the rubber cone that goes above the front and rear springs. So im not testing the springs on the bare metal i think there probably for to stop the spring making a noise my suspention had previously not be raised but it had 1.5 spacers put in and the last owner must of took out the rubbrr cones and threw them away hope that makes more sense. So not that i jave replaced the normal springs with 3" springs i have to the spacers out as i did not want 3" springs on there plus the 1.5 spacers that would of took the suspention to 4.5 inches

Lambert probably is the bump stops now that u mention it

Ok need more help please.
Ok fitted the 4 3" springs 4x 3" shocks took out for a test drive pulling badly to the right you need to keep hold of the steering any ideas please guys
