Default Adj. panhard rod and lowering springs?

I'm going to put on some lowering springs and was wondering is a adj. panhard rod necessary and why?

Thanks in advance!

An adjustable panhard bar is necessary when lowering the car to allow the rearend to remain centered. When you changing the mounting points' position (relative to each other), the distance will be shorter and because the factory bar is at a slight angle and lowering the body causes the bar to push the rear to the drivers side.

Hello
Like mentioned above a re centers the rear end under the vehicle! Due to it shifting after the vehicle is lowered. But I wanted to suggest to you that UMI Performance has a variety of pan hard bars that might just interest you! Below is a link to show you what all we have to offer!

If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will be more than glad to help.
Thanks
Brad
