Really does depend on the car i have a mate who needed drop boxs(castor was so far out) and adjustable panhards with 4 inch. But myself i put 4 inch king H/Ds in my GQ LWB and came up great with a set of offset castor bushes didnt need an adjustable panhard on the front only on the back and of course you need the longer brake lines front and rear. |

I may run with a 4" then and see how the castor plates do, I keep hearing people say that they are shit and don't waste my money just get drop boxes. Do any of you know the reasoning behind everyone saying to stay away? What is the problem with them? |
