My views on this:
No. Well, I say no, but I couldn't feel the bumpsteer from the passenger seat. Rear toe arms on the other hand - Ohhhh yes you need them. Still, the theory behind these is sound so i'd fit them, especially if you are lowering over an inch.

I don't have as many extension bars. I had a quick go with the extension I have got, with a UJ attachment as well, but it didn't feel like i had a good, positive grip on the bolt head, so as I'm a ham-fisted arse at the best of times, I decided not to risk a rounded bolt head and chickened out.

A UJ won't cut it here, you need a wobble bar or ball/socket.
