totta Crolla Wrote:Yes Jondee it's interesting you mention the Panhard Rod and lowering, when I removed mine I drew the arc that it took on the floor and at no point over a sixty degree radius did it change by more than 10mm. Of course that could be 20mm difference side to side if lowering the car makes the rod completely parallel to the axle.
I just made a diagram and calculated the sideways movement of the
rear axle due to lowering the car by 40 mm. From memory, it was
something like 1.75 mm. This is all you have to compensate for with
the adjustable panhard rod. I put a bend in the factory item, near one
end, enough to shorten it by 1.75 mm. My bar finished up looking like
the Whiteline one. Total cost... nada !!!
