Panhard on Drift setup

Trochoid,
like jgrewe says, the panhard bar is one kit designed to fix one problem (high rear roll center); and the tri-link is a separate kit designed to fix a separate problem (binding.) I have been racing both for 5 years now, and they are wonderful. Too noisy for street use though.

The entire set up is a bit extreme for basically a street car, but then so is the widebody kit. It's all in good fun to build the car up. Once this is all done, it will eventually receive a TII swap. With the planned TII swap and and a hp target of 350-400, I'm undecided on what eventual mods the rear end and suspension will get. I plan on running the stock lsd GSL rear end for a bit, but if I tear it up at the drag strip, then I will be time to build an 8.8 and decide if I want a drag set up or compromise with a dual drag and cornering/road race set up. That should be an interesting project in itself.
Seems like the older I get, the more extreme the toy becomes, and people wonder why I refuse to grow up.

Amen brother, I turn 44 in 2 days and I can't get enough of the slideways in my car. -se 13b in the my shop and -se rear end in the very close future. Panhard and s4 steering rack on the shortlist. I like Montana Kids panhard setup myself.
