When I saw ur pics it didn't look like u had moved your sway bar over to clear bracket, and most people don't grind at the bracket like me to get it clearing. Glad u got it dialed in bro.:waytogo:

godoy- panhard bar isn't really designed to make the ride any better per say... It's mainly to reposition the axle back to center of vehicle. It did make my rear suspension feel alittle better, cause my lower trailing arms were binding up from being at an angle, which was my main reason for getting it and adjustable LCA. So guess u could say it did make the ride smoother, but only by putting the rear end in correct position as stock, i.e. springs, shocks, upper & lower trailing arms, drive shaft, all in straight alignment with each other, frame, axle and such and were they should be coming from factory. So guess u can say it made the ride feel better, but mainly put axle and wheels in center n even. Just my opinion from having with n without em.
Yuko04-not trying to thread jack bro, just givin some info, u shuld give urs:)

No worries on the thread jack...info is always good!

Well, drove it 50 miles yesterday and we got creeks in the front end and I got the panhard bar bracket still hit the sway bar on rebound and bumps,wiggle here,wiggle there. I think I might have the torsion bars too cranked out.. Now a couple of things... I slid and twisted and relocated end links and switched them from driver to passenger and blah blah blah.... You'd think as many s-10 and mazdas, nissans ive done this YUKO would be my mona lisa....WHITEOUT, you said to slide swaybar bracket over right? Meaning you want me to drill new holes for the swaybar bushings? Because thats the only way I am going to get it to the right more than 3/4's of an inch. Im done grinding:buffer:.
Maybe that TONY is back now he can do his job an solve ALL my problems!!!:signs8:

I've heard you have to drill new holes for the bushings to get it further to the pass side.
