70mm lift – need caster?

Post by frontyMatt »

TJM make a 70mm lift kit for the 100 series, ive been told that i wont need any caster correction with this kit fitted.
I'm a bit skeptical of this, as i was always under the understanding that anything over 50mm will need some caster correction done.

so what are your thoughts and opinions of this?

will it still drive straight without any caster done?

Thanks,
Matt

caster correction bushes will definately help with steering.
mate got and 80 with 3inch lift from arb and they definately used correction bushes.

if they don't i'd think it would be right on the limit if you do do the lift through them i'd get it alinged elsewhere and ask them to give you what the castor is at and what the spec is for it i'll look in the book tomorrow at work and see what it should be.
