We use the QA1 XM series rod-ends
Where can these be purchased?

The Chome-Moly bars with those ends are $169.
If you just need the rod-ends, you'll have to call me so I can get you current pricing. Usually around $70/pair delivered without the adapter bushings.

What about 60' times? Does the panhard rod help cut down on your 60' times? I've heard that it does. Not sure why. I always thought it was just for handling improvement.

The torque arm and LCA's control the axle in the front to rear movement, the PHR only controls it in side to side movement. I don't see how it would have any effect in 60' times.

It's only $95 + shipping. Those rod ends aren't well know to most folks here, but they look pretty good spec wise and since the PHR isn't under a lot of load (time wise), they should last a good long time. When the time comes to replace them, I'll get some chromoly QA1 Edura 2000's which are well known, for about $30 a piece.

PM me if you want the details, they are not a sponsor.
Here's a few pics after I painted it. Total cost was $105. It uses 1 1/8 diameter .220 wall thickness aluminum tubing and is 39.5" long.
I'm very impressed and I think the finish came out great. There were a few bad spots (use good masking tape), but I still think mine is the niciest looking PHR I've seen yet.

I put in the double rod end chrome moly phb from Sam Stanos. It was only 169.00. once you adjust the rear end into position its all good. Do a search on this forum for Sam's name and you can see what kind of businessman he is. good luck
