Lowering Question
When an Fbod is lowered - does the panhard bar need shortened or lengthened to center the rear with the new loweing springs?
My 1992 has been lowered I'm sure (it sits way lower than my 1990), but still has the stock panhard bar. But - the bar is bent, and I was wondering if this was someone's feeble attempt at recentering the rear after the lowering spring install.

It depends. Mine had to be shortened to bring the rear back twoards the passenger side of the car, but I know of other people that had to lenghten it to push the rear end to the drivers side.

OK - well I'll have to add an adjustable panhrad rod to the wish list! I have the Energizer Bunny wish list - it keeps growing and growing and growing!
