    That's the one I was talking about except they dont have bushes. Wouldnt that send alot of vibrations through the chassis?

    Not sure. I was hoping somebody would have already tried them. Ill ask for the suppliers opinion.

    Hence why I guess you're suggesting the modification to the originals.

    Just thinking out loud ...... with reference to the Panhard rod and in particular it's mounting point to the chassis. Would a bracket that lowered (extended) the mounting point on the chassis 2" serve the same purpose as changing Panhard rod length? That way the original Panhard rod angles could be maintained.

    Gary, sounds like a splendid idea. Something worthy of weighing up. That's for sure.

    That was suggested to me by les Richmond automotive. . Dont think its that simple though, need to factor in its motion of travel etc.. doable though

    Had a look see today (at panhard brackets) whilst recalibrating my eas after extending the lower Arms on the rear height sensors using the turnbuckle. My eas now works with the lift kit without throwing a fault.

    I reckon I'm standard height it crabs by 20mm ie 10mm over from centre line front and rear.

    Reckon extending the panhard rod would be an easier option than lowering the brackets.

    I'm assuming the rods are 1" dia. I'd need to check.

    Agreed, I think I'd look for a 2nd hand panhard rod to cut and weld though! Just to be safe .
