1)you need castor corrected radius arms
2)axle seems to be going over to one side too, when you lift your car you need to adjust the length of the panhard rods to suit so buy a pair of adjustable panhards for the front and rear

Try either ORA or jimnybits.co.uk

Also don't forget with extra downwards travel you will need longer brake lines.

the trailmaster shocks are only slightly longer than standard hence no need for longer hoses

so what i need to buy to fix the problem is:
castor corrected radius arms and a pair of adjustable panhards?

about the castor. is there's something that just fix it like bushes or i need to buy full radios arm?
and i have a rear panhard relocation bracket is that change anything?
