Default Adjustable Panhard bar install

When trying to center the rear axle with an adj. panhard bar, do you simply turn the adjustment screw to shorten the length of the bar while it is mounted? Will the axle move as you shorten the length of the bar?

Thanks for the help.

FYI -- The Eibach Prokit moved my axle approx. 3/4" to the driver side.

Thanks Howarmat,

I think that sums it up.

BTW, did you have any trouble with the install of the DS? The shop I used could not eliminate the vib at 85mph. I asked about torqueing the bolts, but they did not think it was necessary.

Later

Those bolts should be torqued.

I think all bolts need proper torqing really and locktite is also reccomended.
