Default BMR Panhard + Rear Girdle

I have an adjustable BMR Panhard with the poly bushings. I was wondering if there were any rear-end girdles that will fit with the BMR panhard rod. I know they sell the relocation bracket, but that is only for the spherical bushing version.

Any thoughts?

Yep - also the LPW low profile girdle will fit with any panhard bar and it is a nice piece.

So as far as I understand they server several purposes:

1) The look good (always want the guy behind you to see pretty things)
2) Cooling: Most are aluminum and hence cool better...many of the non-low profile ones are actually large capacity (aka more oil takes longer to heat)...some have cooling fins to disburse heat
3) Many also have some pressure support that some how helps keep everything together longer, I'm not sure what they put pressure on, but something

They put pressure on the bearing caps helping
to prevent deflection during hard acceleration.
