This means there are no adjustments from the factory. After lifting the G-Class there's only a few options- Installing these Caster bushings, or installing new radius arms with caster built in. Luckily we have these bushings that will fix your caster up to 50mm of lift without the large costs of radius arm replacement. Anything above 50mm in lift will require arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen developing these caster bushings we know that installation is not a quick an easy job on Gwagens. We've developed an installation jig tool for customers to install themselves or professional workshop to install to make your life easier. Not installing these bushings without a template or guide can lead to wasted time and money. We are the only manufacture that offers this free installation Jig with our caster bushings!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Includes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQty. 4 Caster Bushings \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQty. 1 Caster Bushing Jig Tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY FIT CASTER-CORRECTION BUSHES?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCaster: What is it and what does it mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCaster angle\u003c\/strong\u003e is the angular displacement from the vertical axis of the suspension of a steered wheel in a car, bicycle or other vehicle, measured in the longitudinal direction. It is the angle between the pivot line (in a car - an imaginary line that runs through the center of the upper ball joint to the center of the lower ball joint) and vertical. Car racers sometimes adjust caster angle to optimize their car's handling characteristics in particular driving situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cfigure\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/d365pjkgt5rd4j.cloudfront.net\/images\/technical\/caster.angles.jpg\" alt=\"Various Caster Angles\"\u003e\n\u003cfigcaption\u003eFigure 1 (above) shows the various caster angles. 0\u003cspan\u003eo\u003c\/span\u003e is the vertical axis and the -\/+ is the pivot line\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese were commonly known as a \"pull to the left\" cars.
