If your not planning on lowering, a non adjustable will be fine. all my suspension parts are adjustable, but that is because i like being able to adjust them to what i want. adjustable is necessary when lowering because it changes the geometry of the suspension and your rear may be a bit off centered. Also, if you are going with 315+ rear tires so you can center your rear for no tire rub

If you plan on lowering the adjustable panhard bar allows you to recenter the rear end under the car once it is lowered. Since you aren't lowering a non-adjust. would be fine. The other benefit to adjustable panhard bars is they more bushing bushings which can come into factor depending on how you use the car. This might help you some- http://www.umiperformance.com/catalo...page=app_guide

I hope that helps!
