Default Panhard Bar Installation ...

Has anyone installed a Maximum Motorsports panhard bar on their fox body? I looked at the instructions for the first time and it seems pretty damn complicated! Am I going to be able to do this alone? How hard was it to do all the drilling for the bolts, etc.?

Any tips, advice, etc.? I was excited about installing this until I looked at the directions for the first time today lol

I think I might have that problem! For some reason I can barely fit my SLP's I have on there now! I guess we will have to wait and see, if it doesnt fit then I am selling it.

Well, I will just wait and see. Also, now if I install this panhard bar, when I go to swap out my control arms, etc. am I going to have to take the whole thing off? [&:] This sucks because I am kind of having second thoughts about it.. Someone shed some light lol

From what I saw, you can leave it on. It mounts shock mount and the frame rail from what I remember
