before anyone says it i know i should get drop boxes but at the moment thats out of the question with my wallet at the moment. however i need castor correction for a 3'' lift badly as I'm having bad wandering problems and i have to drive a road where trucks have damaged it badly daily. what castor correction bushes should i get for a 3" lift. please note this will only be a temp fix for 6 months at the most

Well really anything is going to cost you the same, if not more than drop boxes.
If you go bushes, they are cheaper but install will cost you.
Then caster plates. Again, similar price to drop boxes.
And then drop boxes. Simple and self install.

So really. Your either stuffed for 6 months or you just buy the drop boxes.

Not if they are only going in for 6 months.

General rule is 1 degree for each inch of lift.

I'm a bit unsure though on re using stock bushes after pressing them out.

They ain't very popular so not surprised really.
A 2 degree won't be perfect but 10 fold better than nothing.
