    Default fitting adjustable panhard rod

    as per title anyone got a good method for doing this to align t he diff correctly?

    i was pretty much just thinking jackup car by diff

    remove standard rod

    drop back to ground and bounce around a bit so wheels sit even
    (maybe measure guard clearance)

    jack back up and make new rod fit nice and snug

    lower again and measure guard clearances.

    adjust if neccesary

    sound ok?

    Yeah steel rule sounds the go.

    Once it's installed, drop the two wheels onto a couple bricks or equivalent so you can adjust without having to jack it up each time to access the nuts. If it's not an on-car adjustable type, just install, check gaurd clearances and turn threads of rod appropriate rotations of thread pitch to centralise so you only need to do it once. Hope that helps.
