Has anyone tried Adjustable Caster Bushings on their Disco front arms?

I installed them on my 95 after driving for a while with my lift. A huge difference on the highway much more stable and tracks great, I can drive with one hand again.

How did you install?
They are round with an off set bushing.
Are they keyed?
How do they stay in position?
Thanks

they come with instructions for installing. They are a press fit into the arm no key or anything else, they went together fine, I was a little concerned but the install was fairly easy.

What brand did you buy? How much $$?
Kevin, if you're bringing in a set, I could use a set too, also Josh in Salmon Arm is looking for the same.
cheers, Dave

Just put in a 50mm coil lift in & no vibration & wheel pulls back to center.
Do I really need new bushings?
I will get the caster checked to see the degrees
