    Other suspension bits

    Also found adjustable panhard rod for lowered vehicles.

    What is that anyway?

    Also front strut bar, but it goes straight across the chassis, so it would hit the engine.. too bad!!


    Finally front sway bar for RA6x lift back.

    A Panhard rod (or bar) is the link on a live axle-coil spring rear suspension that locates the assembly laterally. Depending on how it's adjusted/located to the body and axle it can generate downforce on one or both tires. NASCAR chassis builders call it a "track bar"

    It wouldn't do us any good as our suspensions have no use for one.

    seems like Whiteline is smoking something because it clearly shows MA61 in the catalog!

    How about the front camber plates or at least solid mounts for the front struts? Any luck with the Cusco ones? Toysport siad they could get the Cusco ones but didn't give a price or a part number.

    Wes,

    Probably only way to get a 1 & 1/4" front bar is custom made. You are in Florida, so Saner Performance is lots closer than me on left coast. They made mine, with 3 hole adjustment for $165 plus s/h. Awesome dimension, will make the whole car handle much better in autox. My only complaint is they are slow, hard to contact, and because I'm so far away, it was difficult to get the angles on the ends of the bar just right. So my bar really isn't adjustable since I have to use the stiffest setting.

    Don, I have contacted them and got no response. I was curious to see if they had notes from when they did yours. I dont think I have my stock bar anymore and since its my only car I can't remove the bar and send it to them and it takes forever to change the front bar so I dont want to do it more than I have to. It looks like I have to schedule a day that I can drive down there and have it made, so thats probably 50 more for gas and a day eaten up that I was hoping to save.

    the celica liftback front swaybar upgrade is only 27mm (1.06") so that is of no use.
