    is it an on car adjustable one? they are easier to adjust. when i did mine i just kept adjusting it until the gap between the top of the tyre and guard were the same on both sides.

    Yeah i think it is can you adjust it with the wheels on ground or do you have to jack it up so the wheels are off the ground

    You can remove the panhard rod (standard rod and height) with the car on the ground. In saying that you should now know what to do.

    If not, remove the standard rod, then install new rod and adjust so its not pushing or pulling in either direction.

    wheels need to be on the ground.
    well not on the ground. an easy way to do it is. jack up the rear of the car. chuck a stockie under each tyre and let the weight be on the wheels.

    then you can climb under and adjust your panhard rod. and check clearances etc.

    shouldnt be too hard mate. i took mine to pedders and they charged me 20 bucks to adjust it for me. because the nut was stuck and i cbf doing it

    hey guys just wondering do you need an adjustable panhard rod if one side is lower then the other (non-irs) to make them even? Cheers

    not if its lower on one side.

    panhard rod dictates where the diff sits in relation to the chasis. so if you have more room on right hand side. and the left hand side scrubs your tyre. this will rectify that problem
