Panhard bar

[Gliderider06]

Will this work on the back of a 63? Meaning is it the correct length for stock ride height?
Thanks!

Looks like stock is 31.375 that one is 31.5 or 1.5 longer. Sounds like it may be to long

Is the stock 31.375 measurement center to center? And the aftermarket bar, 31.5, may be overall?
Since it is adjustable, I would think they made it to fit.

Hard imagine they would measure total overall, I would take it center to center.

 

[Gliderider06]

That's what I dont know either. Maybe I will look at the hotchkis bar and see what they are.

I downloaded the hotchkis bar installation instructions It is adjustable from 31" to 32" center to center.

You need to buy a adjustable panard bar, that adjusts both directions….some adjustable bars only adjust one way..
I have UMI adjustable panard bars on my 62’s ( part # 3654B) comes powder coated red or black.
it comes with double hex nuts - with a center hex nut to adjust both directions then set the selected width with the double hex nuts
I them used for stock ride height but it does center the rear end housing.

What Paul said, otherwise with single adjuster you have to remove one end to adjust. With adjustment on both ends , you don't have to remove any end.

Also the double adjustable UMI bar # 3654B is only $160 with free shipping on Summit
I also used UMI double adjustable upper rear control arms # 3652B on my 62’s ( for 59-64)
