Default Adjustable PHR problems...

So I bought this double adjustable panhard rod because apparently you need it when lowering the car... except my skills suck ***. The springs lowered about 1" and i adjusted the new PHR to the stock length before I installed it. My axel was not centered... so I shortened it about 1½" and it's still off... it doesn't seem to be working!

Do I shorten or lengthen the PHR if my cars wheels look exactly like this?





It doesn't poke out that far, but just so you understand

Thanks!

Actually the PHR would need to be SHORTENED if the axle is off relative to the car is as shown in this pic. Body attach on pax side and axle attach on driver side - shortening the rod will pull the body toward the pax side.

The lower you go, the more you have to shorten it from stock length.
