    The "weight" of the steering will have more to do with Caster correction and tyre pressure. The lift will have No effect on steering weight. Incorrect caster will though.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    nah mat, shouldnt make your steering heavier, unless your fitting a RTC or adjustable steering damper (RTC damper may or may not make it feel heavier). You may get a little more body roll but that will depend on rating of the springs
