I wouldn't bother with it. You'll find that the nolathane bushes crap out a lot quicker than the factory rubber ones. If you get the shimmey's in the front end after you do the lift then make sure your king pins are adjusted properly before you change your castor. You need about 15lb of resistance on your steering knuckle. Hope this helps.

Personlally i would, but if you are unsure put the lift in first and then see how much castor you have. if you have over 1 each side then not a problem.

You can run 3 inches of lift in a GU before you even have toi worry about changing castor.
