Right on, should do the trick as far as the caster problem. You might even want to throw the adjustable lower on (with new bushings) as you may be able to push it further forward enough to get away with the stock upper, I know Ryan (Builtnotbought) has stock uppers and 5" of lift... not ideal but possible.

Been off line for awhile and working like crazy for my new job. Should work out well though. Went wheeling with son yesterday and was stupid and went back country where i didnt belong. Got temporarily high centered couple times and thought i was done. Had to throw down some throttle to climb back up to the trail...lots of smashing, crunching and thought for sure i destroyed diff covers, oil pan or popped tires...nope the girl made it through. No more back country for me. Glad to have made it home

it runs alright. mines a diesel, the transmissions suck so freakin bad. the seats are stiffer than **** and the shocks are even stiffer. and with 50k on it the driver seat has a decent tear in it (not the only one at my work with a tear) nice motor though, don't know how the gas ones are. the transmissions seem to sputter and not know what gear to go in sometimes but other than that i can burn rubber no problem. but mine has new shocks and a programmer

I put new bushings in when I put them on mine only had them on for two weeks max then went to the long arm. It's a four inch spring with two inch coil ..... Crazy for him to not just put a long arm on it but he is a knuckle head

yes i did it for a couple yrs, BUT it's not legal so if you find an *** of a cop they can get you on safety modification. (yes it was ut county that got me on it) so keep your stock belts in place for that reason.
