It's a brace for the panhard rod, BMR and UMI make tubular ones with the bend right in the middle that allow you to run true duak setups.

It's necessary - but can be replaced with one that gives you more space:

http://www.bmrfabrication.com/F-bodySuspension.htm

scroll down to PANHARD ROD RELOCATION KIT

Duh-oh! The extra time I took to look up the page cost me the timely response! Oh, well, may as well add the link to the UMI one (I didn't know they had one available - I guess you learn something new every time you go to this site!).

If they can make it, you can too, but at what cost of supplies, tools, and time?
