FOunders panhard relocation kit Has anyone used the founders panhard relocation kit ? If so does it make a difference in handling ? is it worth the $100 ? Does founders have any promos going on for parts ? I love their other things Ive used and would like to stick with one company

I just installed it in anticipation of true duals over the axle. From everything I've read, it does NOT help handling due to un-leveling the panhard rod. I'd say that definitely happened when I installed my relocation bar, as I had to re-center the rear end afterward.
From what I've read here, a level panhard bar with the suspension loaded is optimal for handling using a PHB. My car is not set up for handling, it's for straight line... so I can't attest to a change in handling as I really haven't been paying attention to it. But again, I don't think the relo bar is meant to improve handling, just provide clearance for duals.

The panhard bar relocation is only to create more space for exhaust. It can hurt handling by making the panhard bar not sit level. If you are to get the relocation, I would recommend checking out this thread too:

Yun Gunz, that car looks great underneath. Very clean.

mine rattled on the exhaust a lot and just cleans it up underneath. I figure instead of blowing it on other random crap I figured this could do nothing but help lol.

lol, I think I will maybe get it this winter, Im replacing the exhaust next summer, so for now I guess its underdrive pulley and subframe connectors then save til the fall, but I agree that it will only help when installed
