I think thats the way its supposed to be. Ill look for a pic from umi to check.
Edit: Heres a pic from BMR http://www.bmrfabrication.com/phr/Uphr-installed2.jpg
It looks like the pass side is lower in the pic. Id pm whoevers kit you have and ask to make sure.

The PHB relocation kit is NOT a performance handling item. It's for exhaust clearance. I will not run one because it does put the PHB on far too much of an angle. I do sell them for those that have to have them, but in all honesty I don't recommend it.

Sam is correct it was not designed with panhard alignment in mind. However on a stock height car it more times than not does help level the panhard rod which does work to your handling advantage.

I respectfully disagree.
Every stock height car I've been under has the PHB sitting pretty much level when sitting on the ground (vs. hanging in the air). Those with stock height cars can look for themselves.

You can decide for your self from this link panhard bar
I leveled and lowered my bar and it had a drastic improvement in knocking my times down when driven on roadcourses.
I used a UE PHB relocation kit and drilled a few more holes in it for adjustability. It works for me and I am happy with it.
