panhard bar worth it? Is a non adjustable UMI panhard bar worth it? My car is stock and im not going to lower it, its an 2002 SS. I am curious to find out the gains over a stock one. Thanks.

I just upgraded my suspension with koni adjustables and strano springs. Amongst those mods I obviously needed a PHB. I got the one that came with Strano's HP1 package, the single adjustable one. I don't know if it was from the shocks/springs, or the PHB, but the rear tracks much better when making turns. Just something to think about.

if you ever plan on gettin a new rearend i would recomend adj. panhard. but, yes aftermarket panhard bars are much better. subframe connectors seemed to help me more than my panhard.

Hell yes the APHB made a difference. I did the strano/koni setup w/o it at first. The rear of the car was loose going into a corner.
I went with the double adjustable on car bar w/ poly/rod ends. The rear of the car tracks a lot better through the turns and the rear of my car is centered.
After you replace stock parts with good parts, i.e. koni's, strano, UMI, etc. You don't know how much the stock stuff moves/flexes.
