Hello,
When you lower the vehicle it moves the rear end to the drivers side, the lower the vehicle goes the further the rear end will move. The panhard bar controls the rear end under the vehicle side to side. A adjustable panhard bar will allow you to re-center the rear end under the vehicle once it has been lowered. If you are running any type of wider rear tire with out a adjustable panhard bar you may get tire rubbing in the inner fender wells.
We alsop have a few options as low as $109.99 seen here- http://www.umiperformance.com/produc...ategory_id=107
If you have any additional questions please ask. Thank you!

I would 2nd that you got lucky and would recommend adjustable ones for anyone else. You don't spend that much more anyway. If they pick up the slp one and find their rear end not centered, then they may end up spending more money anyway

It depends on how low it goes, like they said... I dropped my last one like 2" You better believe I needed one, it swung so far to the side, it was ridiculous! My vert I only dropped about an inch and I think I could've gotten away without one, but for the $100 or so bucks it costs for one, its a good buy. Get one you can adjust while it's on the car, it'll save you insane amounts of time!
