Default panhard rod advice

need a new one.. should i go with adjustable or non adjustable? i do not plan on lowering my car for a while just need a good replacement for stock. i'm guessing i should go with BMR also?

if your not planning on lowering a non-adjustable is fine. bmr, spohn, umi, etc all make quality parts. they will all suffice

yep without a doubt. only thing that i will say is if you really do plan on lowering it ull have to replace it with an adjustable. so if your going to do it mise well get the adj. unit now and set it to stock length so you have it there for later instead of having to buy another one.

depends on the unit you get. there are on-car and off-car adjustable. the on-car of course does not require removal of the PHR to adjust.

once installed also the on-car adjustable can be adjusted by 1 person, the off-car adjustable may require another person pushing on the vehicle to get it lined up afterwards to get the bolt in

Ya I'm really only looking at getting the LCAs, reloc. brackets and panhard for now, might add the torque arm while I'm at it as well. Need a LS6 intake too, man I need everything in this car lol.
