yeah its only scince the lift went in its always done it. Had me stumped so had mechanic look at it and took him a while to see but the control arm offset bushs on the passenger side arnt quite centered like the drivers double checked it with the measuring tape.

the cheaper bushes actually can twist in the radius arms. making them not castor anymore.

re-install the bushes or if to hard basket, pay a front end specialist...

ok but from everyones experiences which is the better option the castor plates or the bushes? if plates would it need 2 or the 3 degree corection as it has settled down a little for the 3" lift

just put standard bushes back in it.
run drop boxes or after market arms if you desperately need the castor correction, but i dont think you would notice the difference too much....
