Lowering driver side of panhard bar

I have a MWC 9" with kooks TD and I'm lowered 2 ".. All my clearances are pretty good, but my panhard bar is in a fairly drastic angle. Is there anyone who makes a bracket to straighten this out, or am I making my own? I already have the founders relocate on the passenger side which is necessary, but makes this angle worse.

Many, many people have lowered both sides of the panhard rod with great success. In fact, many of the best handling f-bodies around have lowered panhard rods. It lowers the rear roll center which has handling benefits. The downside is the rear spring rate will need to be increased slightly to compensate.

I bought the UE lowering brackets and 200lb/in rear springs. I have a 21mm solid bar to go on the back.

I've been asking one of the big 3 (UMI, BMR & MWC) to build something to straighten out the PHB and nothing has come yet. The watts link was not a option for me and still looks the same way with the new ride.

I guess I will just drop the propeller down some more and toss some 250lb springs in there. The 150's are too soft.
