I just ordered one yesterday...on sale for $106 plus shipping.

Saw it while browsing around and thought I'd give it a shot. Did a search here & didn't find anything.

Please excuse the dumb question, but what does this do? Center the rear end? Would that be for when lowered?

(sorry if its a no brainer, just dont know, and if i dont know i ask away. Cant ever stop learning) thanks

I didn't think anyone made one either. I was researching lower trailing arms & this popped up. Spohn makes pretty good stuff & if the pic represents the actual product than it seems like a great find.

I'll update when I get it & install it. Good to see someone else pulled the trigger on it too.

The panhard mounts to the frame & the axle. It is designed to keep the axle centered left to right under the truck through it's suspension movement. Dropping the truck, or raising it for that matter, changes geometry & will shift the axle off center...some of us have light rubbing issues or clearly shifted axle placement. An adjustable panhard allows you to re-center the axle after a drop.

ive been selling them for a while now on my store section with no issues and I'll beat anyones prices shipped on them. I've sold a few sets here allready.

usually on the tahoes with the panhard bar installed on customers trucks you can adjust them when its on the ground which makes it even easier to dial in.

The upper/lower adjustables should be out soon also which Ill have listed on my store section

so you'll beat the $106 on the pan hard for an 01 suburban?

when are the trailing arms going to be out?

current advertised shipped prices.

the usual price on that bar is 145 shipped my price is 139 shipped

whatever their shipped to price is at the sale ill beat it as long as its a current and I do this with any kit i sell ill beat anyones advertised ship to prices if they are higher than mine.

Are they doing upper adjustables as well? Thanks to you now I always look at how far forward my axle is compared to stock.

Nope, tried putting some on and they didn't fit very well.

I would have had to grind them a bit to fit better in a few places and they didn't look to be a stronger configuration than stock, pinion angle is fine I've just been annoyed since you commented on the disastrous alignment of the rear axle. How much are those arms gonna run in black shipped to 80205? I'm down for a set when they come out so keep us updated if you will.

i have a few customers running low 12s with the djm rear set up on tb springs on mickey thompson drag rads. one is a 4l80e on a 150 shot and no issues on breaking the djm thats for sure.

as soon as I get the adjustables in stock ill add it to my store section. Ive had the panhard bar on for a while now now one i guess checks.
