I believe you will find those are for D1's, I don't believe anyone makes them for a D2.

Wow... never seen those, so you put one behind the axle facing down and one in front facing up? You can always drop the trailing arm where it meets the frame but that takes some fabrication.

Don't you agree, these are for D1's only?

They are listed under the d2 section. I sent an email to devon4x4 for clarity.

Are there a reasonably priced set of front castor correction arms?

I received the email back from Devon4x4 that the are for the D2 which is great news. But the cheapest shipping is 77GBP.

I stand corrected, used to be you couldn't get them.
How much of a correction are you needing?

Those are cool as hell, BUT. Your going to have to eyeball correctness, unless you feel like pressing them in, doing a caster sweep, then pressing out and pressing back in for an adjustment. With a 3" lift like you have, I would go straight for all the way up in back and all the way down in front
