Why is this bad.
Adjustable panhard bar 3rd gen 4runner.
The axle end lift bracket is cut.
Rear sway bar end links 3rd gen 4runner using 2nd gen parts.
4th 5th gen 4runner and gx 470 460 and fj after designing the pck for the 3rd generation 4runner i looked at a friend s 5th gen and sure enough same issues with lifted trucks and no real solution to restoring panhard bar geometry factory handling characteristics.
96 02 3rd gen toyota 4runner front diff drop kit install duration.
As we lift our 5th gen toyota 4runners the panhard bar goes from its horizontal position to a more vertical position preventing it from doing its job thus resulting in the axle having more movement left and right.
Complete kit includes adjustable forged torsion keys 3 rear block extended u bolts extended nitro shocks and optional install tool 99 04 grand cherokee 2 5 2 0 lift kit w shocks complete kit lifts 2 5 in front and 2 0 in rear and includes extended nitro charged shocks.
Why would you need an adjustable panhard bar.
The panhard bar is in place to keep the rear axle centered below the body and prevent movement from left to right.
That is not the main selling point of the part.
Yes this bar is adjustable so it adjusts for your lift height and returns your rear axle vehicle to tracking straight.
