Adjustable Panhard Bar

Does anyone make an adjustable panhard bar with rubber bushings, not poly. I don't want to introduce any more harshness or vibration into the ride. Thanks guys.

you might try BMR, they make control arms with a poly/rubber combo, they might be able to help you.

also i don't think that just poly on you panhard is going to make your ride harsh or noisy. the whole idea of the tubular adj. panhard is to minimize deflections, and the rubber bushing would negate that.

you are pobably wanting an adj. bar becuase your car is lowered correct? if so i would bet that the poly bushing have little effect on the harshness, the harness you have is probably due to the stiffer springs.

Thanks Dewey, I was hoping someone would say that. I did lower my car with Eibach Pro-kit spings. I want to get Spohn's adjustable panhard rod. I just want to use poly in places were it won't affect ride quality since this is a daily driver car. Thanks again.

it shouldn't be bad at all, in fact i poly on all my bushings, and drive my car 35 miles each way to work every morning. it isn't bad at all, in fact in some ways it is nicer, because everything feels much more solid, but not harsh.

hope that helps!
