Default which adjustable panhard to get

I have been looking into this for about a year now and still am undecided. I want poly bushings, the BMR one was my first choice but it looks weak due to the placement of where you make adjustments. A lot of the other ones with poly bushings I've looked at don't have grease fittings and I don't want to drill my own, so what has everybody else gone with?

I too have the BMR adjustable panhard bar and I'm very happy with it.

I've never seen or heard that before.

When I was researching adjustable panhard bars for my car, BMR came most recommended...and now that I have one on my car, I would definitely recommend it to everyone.

Have you checked the rear axle position to see if you need an adjustable panhard bar?

...and I really only noticed it once I put the wider wheels/tires out back. when I had my first set of 20x8.5's all the way around, to the naked eye, you really couldn't tell
