Default Newb suspension question...

Just wondering what the benefit to the adjustable panhard bar is over the non-adjustable one...and what the purpose of the relocation one is? What are the pros of each over the other basically. Same deal with the rear LCAs...what is better/worse about adjustable rear lowers...I think Ive seen them...but what geometry does that adjust back there? Thanks.

They are stronger firmer than the stock ones, which means better handling

They are nice to help center the rear end after the car has been lowered. If you never lower the car there is really no need for the adjustable phr.

Does the adjustable one help clear exhaust there? Meaning, even if you don't have the 3" dual running, would it help with the stock 3" single hitting there at all? Right now, my pipe hits the axle tube there and I would like to bring it up some to clear that when I hit a larger bump, but then it hits the panhard bar. Are the tubular aftermarket ones small enough in diameter that it allows the pipe to move up some to avoid the axle without hitting the panhard bar?
