This goes to everyone with a different-than-stock panhard bar:

Which one did you get & why (besides the ability to re-center the rear axle)?
What difference does it make on the street and on the track?
What combination is the best: poly/poly, poly/rod or rod/rod?

Thanks! :)

Ben

BMRpoly/poly adj bar/ The price was right

Normal Street driving not a thing. On road courses in compression (right hand turns) the stocker will bow to the point of bending.

Poly rod would be the best

OK, question is: What's the problem with that?

I am not for sure but I think he might be asking what adverse effects would come from having a bent panhard bar. exe. rear end not being centered or alligned. maybe?????

No, when the stock "panhard rod" bends, it makes the rear slightly less stable or firm than it would be with a solid, or non-bowing phr.

Yes, that's what I wanted to know, thanks. :)
So basically it helps with the stability while going around a corner...
