Hey I noticed that my car handles a bit better when takin cornering to the left than it does right.like cornering to the left it feels planted and solid like its on rails cornering to the right it handles well but it feels a little sloppy and I feel body roll if I can say that... .. I have full aftermarket suspension.. Look a my vb garage or signautre.. I have a adjustable panhard bar and I never adjusted it before... What could cause my car to handle better on one side as to the other...

 

You answered your own question before you even asked it.

 

I have no idea how to adjust it.... People keep telling me but I have no clue on how to know when both sides are fine...

 

This 'feel' is most likely from the jacking the panhard bar causes. In right turns the panhard 'jacks' the rear as it is in compression. This compression cause the right rear of the car to rise.

On left turns the panhard is in tension and tends to be neutral or even help flatten the rear.

For a cure, a watts link will take care of it. Adjusting the height of the ends of the panhard may help. Although need to be careful of the stresses placed on the mounting points. And the change in roll center.

I've sorta' gotten used to this feel, but still don't care for it.

Multiple posts at the same time. For adjusting the length of the panhard bar, center the tires between the left and right outer wheel well lips. So that from edge of tire to wheel well outer lip is the same on both sides.

Won't help with the jacking, but that is how to set an adjustable panhard bar. This is normally done with a car that is lowered. As lowering changes where in the arc the panhard bar is sitting.

Ok I will do that when I get home.... Where do I get these watts link piece at....

Wow that's kinda expensive... Is it worth the price...

 

another thing that'll make some difference on that is weight distribution. You're on the left side, that'll help in a left turn. for kicks, have someone ride with you in the pass seat and see if it does any better on a right turn. won't do anything for the jacking effect of the phb but, will probably make a little difference in the feel.

 

just a though, not sure if it will help or cause an issue, but is the panhard bar level?
