Take them out as the drop boxes have the spacing built into them

You would use them instead or caster correction or drop boxes. They would be the top shelf third alternative. Really depends what your trying to achieve a d how high you want to go. What your going to use the car for and how much money you have.

I haven't but have been looking at these recently, are they similar to the snake racing arms?

So I take it using these radius arms eliminates the need use drop boxes, so I guess they are better than both caster correction bushes and drop boxes?

Tough question actually.

Yes a set of Superior Drop arms would be like the Rolls Royce setup. But truly if your looking for a 3" lift for use as a daily, tourer, tough weekender then drop arms are probably money spent unwisely unless you have plenty??

Your money would be way way way better spent on better shocks than drop arms. Kings smoothies at the top, fox shocks or the Superior Amadas would be money best spent in lieu of drop arms for caster correction.

Go the drop boxes mate and spend big on the rest.

Unless your heading up to compete at Cliffhanger then really overkill.
