You might want to wait until after the springs are installed to see how far off the axle is.

I would definitely install the springs before the panhard bar...then you can correctly adjust the bar on the car once it's lowered.

+1 for bmr....that what i have now and i recommend it. i initially had the steeda panhard bar but switched it out for the bmr BECAUSE OF the location of the adjustable section. its feel solid as a rock to me and the "on car" adjustment of the steeda is a pain in the *** compared to to BMR.

Search this Forum on "bent panhard" and you should find the thread in which Norm talked about the loads on a panhard bar.

I have the BMR poly/poly adjustable PHB and HD brace ready to go on my car when I get a nice day. Even with the adjuster, it seems a LOT beefer than the stock bar. I was surprised when I took it out of the box because it was much heavier duty than I thought it would be.

Hopefully I won't be selling the bar again for the same reasons, LOL. I haven't put it on yet as I'm waiting until spring after I get my tax return to get some D-spec to put the springs an PB on at the same time.
