Any adjustable panhard bar will work fine on a Moser 9" rear end. I would recommend it be adjustable and a rod end on one end for that rear end. The rod end prevents suspensiopn bind as the rear end would rotate. The Moser rear ends never fit in there perfect so some adjusting is usually required.

Boxed or tubular is more the user preference than anything, either would work fine. For a high powered car welding is recommended. The 3-Point design can be over kill for many applications. We designed the 3-point SFC's to work with shorter tunnel mounted torque arms that bolt into the floor. The 3-Point SFC's bolt under the torque arm and allow the force of the arm to be distributed into the SFC's and not the floor of the car.

I hope that helps,
Ryan

Since the short arm is more geared towards track use and my car is more of a street car I will get the boxed or tubed SFC so I can use the regular touque arm and get a relocation kit for it. Thanks for the help!!!
