I think the general consensus is don't.

Original equipment.

Every man and his dog make bushes, but nothing beats original.
In saying that if you need castor correction bushes then don't cheap out. Get a trusted brand.

If you need castor correction don't get bushes. Install drop boxes. But if you're only running a 2inch lift there is generally no need.

Good point. The 2" lift is boarder line. I had two fit the correction bushes, but others have been fine.
Bigger tyres will increase the twitchy feeling if your on the limit and Stock bushes.

Are you looking at a lift?? Or just replacing worn stuff??
