**edit**
Guys, my mechanic is in the middle of installing the kit and we have hit a problem .. It appears the rear shock does not bolt straight up .. It's hitting against the spring?
It looks like we need a spacer to install the shock so it clears the spring?! Is this normal? I didn't get any spacer in the kit so I don't know if I'm suppose to get one with the kit or if indeed one is needed at all? I've checked the model number and it corresponds correctly?
Help?

Hey guys,
I just bought an 80mm tough dog lift kit
I noticed in the package, there is a total of TWO FRONT polyurethane -3 degree castor bush kits (EIGHT bushes total) .. even in the listing it states quantity as 2, meaning a total of 8 bushes
As far as I am aware, the fronts only require 4 bushes ... what am I suppose to do with the other 4 extra "front" bushes?
Part number is TDUK-063 and I have 2 boxes of them ... 4 bushes in each box

Secondly, how do you adjust the pan rod? As in, what settings are you suppose to adjust it to?

thanks for the heads up guys

Since you only need one kit (4 bushes), you have two choices, be honest and let who ever you bought them from know, or put them on ebay and sell them.

You need to adjust the panhard until the axle is centered. Unfortunately the TD panhard rod can't be adjusted on the car which means that you have to undo one end to adjust.

Tim80z - I've checked the receipt and they have charged me for two. Also when you check online, it's listed as quantity 2?

I have just hit a problem with the install, edited first post to reflect my problem.
Has anyone installed theirs and had this issue? Or does anyone know / heard of this?
