    About how many inches of lift would it take for the caster angles to start becoming vulnerable?

    At 1.6" of lift, I'm maxed out at 3.6 degrees of caster.

    At 2.5" of lift, you're getting really close to just barely being able to make spec (around 2.5 degrees) with stock UCA's.

    at 3 inches of height, I couldnt get mine in spec, but I did not find the lack of caster offensive. That will be a matter of taste for each driver, however.

    since my coilover lift install, I’ve settled down to the advertised ride height I planned for, and probably should get it realigned…eventually.
