Jegster makes a panhard bar relocation bracket is this good to purchase for a vehicle htat is lowered 1in.? and has anyone purchaed this and thier panhard bar, or can you purchase a spohn bar and use this bracket too? And how do you know when your panhard bar is adjusted properly? Thanks for anyone who replies.

 

Don't think your going to need a relocation bar bracket
for a 1" drop.
Just get an adjustable bar and center the housing under
car.
Am running Eieback rear springs that dropped it one and
a half inches and my track bar is level at ride hieght. Under
acceleration and braking tire gap pretty much stays the
same.
Relocation brackets for the Control arms is a different story. Had to install them to get the angle back the way
you need it. Am running the full Spohn suspension parts
and everything is adjustable.
Had to drop the rear of the bar to the lowest point because
of the rear drop.

oh ok..so if its level with all wheels on the ground then thats ok..

 

Pretty much Yes.

Unless you have soft or sagged springs , bad shocks, or
bad sway bar bushings that allow body to roll over in a
turn.

If you are really into good coner handling an adjustable panhard bar mount on the body end of the bar is one more way to tune your handling. Rasing or lowering the body end of the bar directly affects cornering. When the Good Ole Boys talk about adjusting the "track bar" they really mean the Panhard Bar. In NASCAR the track bar adjustment has become almost as important as adjusting the wedge during a race.

The rear roll center is where the panhard bar crosses the center line of the rear axle. If you lower the panhard bar with an axle mounted relocation bracket, then you will lower the roll center. Lowering the roll center will increase the roll couple (distance between the roll center and the center of gravity). When you increase your roll couple your springs wont work as good, so keep that in mind! You may be playing with more than you realize if you relocate the panhard, good or bad.

I would just measure the distance between the fender lip and the tire on both sides. If they are within 1/4" or so, you don't have to do anything. If they are off by 1/2", then I would get an adjustable bar. The main problem being that you will bind the lower control arms if you lower the car without making left/right panhard adjustments.

 

I've got the Jegs bracket.....it's a nice solid piece and will work with any aftermarket PHB.

 

alright thaks everyone for your input i understand more of the what the panhard rod does and how to adjust it.
