ke71-rolla Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 (edited) Howdy guys, trying to install my panhard rod, replaced the bushes. The end which connects to the diff, I'm having troubles knocking back on all the way. I've lubed it up with some rp7, and can get is so far as the thread is level with the busher, but no further....is there a good trick??? Thanks!

ke70dave Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 yeah its pretty tough. especially the first time with new bushes, i assume you got ugraded ones? the first time i did mine i had to use a g-clamp around the diff to pull the panhard rod on.

parrot Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 By the way, don't tighten the bolts right up until you get the car back on the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 By the way, don't tighten the bolts right up until you get the car back on the ground. Yup, The bushes will twist when you lower it if you tighten them when its in the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ke71-rolla Posted May 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 I got it to finger tightness, then re tightened it once it was lowered; that sound about right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
