    D2a 2003 Panhard Rod Size

    Is there any champion here knows exact size of D2a 2003 Panhard Rod center to center measurement?

    I took the original out to get the bushes replaced. however it was lost/stolen from the mechanic. A replacement rod from pre face-lift era was installed but my front wheels are not centered due to rod being oversize. I can get it shortened but for how much is my question.

    It's always worth having a look in RAVE...

    On models from 03 Model Year, the Panhard rod is shortened by 30 mm (1.18 in). This modification was introduced to enhance the suspension bump steer characteristics in line with other suspension improvements introduced simultaneously. The change to the Panhard rod also required the relocation of the attachment brackets on the axle
    casing and the chassis.

    Thnx, my rave is older version I think. Does not have any d2a changes.

    I ordered DIY adjustable rod kit which allows 80mm movement. I will post pics once its welded. I hope this will fix my driveline issues.

    A quick trip to the forum shop will fix that problem
