founders performance advise My Camaro is lowered with eibach springs. Im getting an adjustable panhard bar and lca relocation brackets and lca's.... should i get poly on both ends of the panhard and the adjustable on car? or tie rods on both ends? the panhard only travels up and down so it doesn't need swivel tie rod joints right? but i will be getting the lower control arms with one side poly and one side tie rod and adjustable on car. what do you guys think? car is mostly track car has Hoosiers 26x10.5 15 and 4.10s with mini spool around 440 horse so should i get poly on both ends of the panhard, keep viberations down also? and should i get poly/rod end adjustable on car for the lca?? thanks!!!

Technically the panhard also has forward/back motion as the axle swings (the LCAs move in an arch, so the rear end doesn't go straight up and down but has an arc to it, so the panhard has to follow that arc).
That being said, I ended up putting poly on both ends of my panhard and so far it seems OK. If they had the rotational joints available for the panhard I would have done that (I don't want any rod ends on my car).

Granted mine isn't a daily driver, but it gets driven hard from time to time.
