what do you need to buy

If you are to put a 3"lift kit on, I know you need Castor correction bushes do you need anything else or would that do? Thanks

I would say extended brake hoses and the load comp. valve extension (I believe this is for none ABS models only) another good mod for the lift will be the rear shock re-locator brackets..

Idealy caster corrected radius arms are better than just bushes, you will need extended break lines aswell, also adjustable panhard rods to re centre the axle.not sure what else is needed.

Mines on castor correction bushes and doing ok so far. I havnt got adjustable panhards but the axles are well off centre. Still drives ok without. Depends how deep your pockets are really.

Have a look on ORA they do kits with everything needed

I would steer clear from ORA panhard rods. I know 2 people with them both cause knocking.

I've haven't had any problems with my ora panhard rods a couple of my mates also run them with out any problems I have heard of other rods stretching the ring where the bush fits in either end though. I'll difinatly keep an eye on mine and check for any play in the joints but offroading is tough on the whole car so every thing needs checking regularly anyway.

I was in the same boat. Mine is a daily however and I've given it a hard time off road it's been fine. I have still got the anti roll bar on so that will limit travel.
Mine has 3" springs, castor correction bushes, es3000 shocks with spacers front and rear relocators and extended brake lines.

i need recovery equipment and guards such as transfer, radius etc!

Learnt the hard way

Protecting the vulnerable components should be on the top of the list of mods IMO.
