Thread: Adjustable Panhard Rod with Rubber bushes

I've seen 'kits' where you make your own using your existing panhard rod. Is that an option?

Old one back in and no more death wobbles. I will extend the stock on to the correct length. Doesn't need to be adjustable as such just longer. Cheers

Jazzman went thorough something recently with an adjustable pan hard, and found the D2a rods were different to the D2 ones the D2 ones were too short. He has a 2 inch lift. I think the problem was sorted with APT

Otherway around I'm pretty sure as I had a cut my D2 one down for my D2a. I've been running the Nolathane unit for 4 or 5 years now. No issues with the bushes. It's meant for D2 but easily modifiable for D2a.

I think your right, , I think Jazzman was 70mm too long on his D2a

APT used orange bushes in my D2a adjustable Panhard Rod. The yellow ones pictured here are what come with the D2 panhard rod that was too long. I recommend speaking to Ben at APT and let him know your dramas. The orange bushes I've got appear to be a push in type, they were already fitted when I got the rod. They are nothing like these yellow ones.

Factory standard panhard rod for the D2 is 815mm centre to centre. APT adjustable is shortest length 810mm approx.

Factory standard panhard rod for the D2a is 780mm centre to centre. APT adjustable is shortest length 775mm approx.

The rod was a pain to get in. I have had my truck since new so no front end impacts and the rod didn't want to line up...so bushes got a bit squashed just getting it in and bolted up...

Cheers
