Just to put my mind straight.
Does this affect the steering?
Do you need castor correction?
Are the vacuum hoses long enough?

These are some of the things that have popped up in separate posts.
Feel free to ad more, so we can make guide for everyone. Thanks.

Grima.

I will answer what I can based on experience on my Landcruiser.
Castor is not a specific angle, there is an average with a plus and minus. If your motor stays within the plus and minus then you do not need correction bushes.If it veers outside of the acceptable limits, then the steering will become lighter and less precise and bushes are a good idea.

When I fitted my 40mm lift the vacuum hoses look to be under a bit of strain, a little bend on the bracket brought the pipes nearer. Have a look here
