UMI Panhard Bar

I got it a while ago but forgot i could put a review for it. The bar looks great under my car, and helped out the handling of the rear end a lot.( I replaced the shocks at the same time if that makes any difference.) for pics just check out my suspension page on cardomain.

Replacing the Panhard Bar is one of the easiest things you can do to your car. Changing all that stuff at the same time is always a good idea if you can afford to do it. But just changing a PHB alone you won't notice any difference at all. Swapping out the shocks and installing polyurathane bushings should make enough of a difference to notice an improvement.

I was one of the easiest things i have done. You have to lift up the back carpet to get to where the shocks mount just so you know. The panhard bar would have taken like 5 minutes but I had to cut one of the old bolts off. All I needed was my air compressor and an impact wrench.
