Panhard bard- Need help
 
Ok guys, I realize you "get what you pay for" and no, I'm not spending a ton of money on this panhard bar.

There are 3 of them for $115. What I need help with is figuring out which one would be better.

S&R
J&M steel
J&M aluminum (different adjustable point than the steel one)

Thanks guys.

Im not familiar with any of those but i think i have a AM discount code that could get the bmr for 20-30 dollars more.

Let me know what you have if you don't mind. I'd appreciate any help since I'm planning to spend about $2k soon...every $20 helps.

I have some suspension parts for sale. Brand new

I have the J&M aluminum one. Very sturdy piece and lighter than the stock part of course. At first I couldn't figure out how to get it properly adjusted but, Frank and I on here got it. To adjust it the easiest way put the car on a lift and load the rear axle so it will be as if the car is planted on the ground. Make adjustments as necessary on both ends. Use some locktite.

You already have a thread about it?

Thanks for the info. It likely won't be on a lift though, probably just jack stands.

Go BMR. I think I paid 119 from Jayman here on the site. Or close to it. Great piece.

GTOphil 01-29-2014 06:20 PM
The BMR I saw in Classifieds for $125 is what I'd like. But it's likely to be next month. So I might end up waiting and hoping.

If I can't find one for sale on here, I'm just getting one of the $115 ones.

I appreciate that. It's likely to be a few weeks. If you sell it, great for you.

If you still have it, I'll be interested.

I have j&m steel, adjustment point is closer to the left side. Haven't had any probs with it, I think I payed like 80 bux for it used

Hmm I've always heard the opposite about J&M and to stay away from it. I wanna say I've seen a YouTube video of some guy under his mustang pulling down on the J&M PHB and it was bowing seriously downward with simple pressure of him pulling on it.

Like the saying. You get what you pay for.

OP, Go BMR and never look back!

GTOphil 02-02-2014 01:08 AM
Thanks I'll see what I can find. I guess a used one would on here would be better. Right now I'm working with a budget of $2k and really would rather not go over.
