..if you're using coileys then they might probably need adjusting..just a suggestion...the panhard rod is to correct the alignment of the rear axle when you lower your ride becuz one wheel sticks out more than the other..if lowered without one, it wud not rub but when cornering you might find your back end 'loose'

Just speaking from some experience ive had

hope it helps

Loose as in bak end comes out, as last night I was giving mine some stick around roundabouts and the bak end came out and I managed to flick it bak. I've just had a rear adjustable whiteline anti roll bar fitted I've got
my rear strut brace front strut brace and front anti roll
bar yet it still slid out. My friends seem
to think it's my tyres having to bigger profile I think there 195 50 15

This is more than likely lift off oversteer, aren't any mods that are really gonna help you with that, you don't wanna be letting off te gas too much at speed in a corner.


I believe you hav to shorten t mate, bit it will be obvious if you pole ire head under the car

If the right hand rear wheel is making contact with the outer wheel arch, you'll need to lengthen the panhard rod so the real axle beam is pushed towards the passenger side of the car. If the left hand rear wheel is making contact with the outer wheel arch, you'll need to shorten the panhard rod so the rear axle beam is pulled back towards the drivers side of the car.

there ya go i was the wrong way round, but what i was going to say is that by looking under the car it becomes pretty obvious, because u can then see which way u need to puch the axle, i couldnt remember which side the panhard rod was fixed to the chassis :)
