Hi all

Just a quick one, I just replaced both front and rear panhards the other day and on removal, noticed that the lipped washer on the diff end of the panhard was pointing outwards on both front and rear diffs. Is this correct, or should they be facing in towards the bush?

Cheers

Andy

Ok I have photos. I have a feeling that the lip should face outwards, to allow for flex and movement of the panhard/diff, but then I could be wrong.

This way?

Allways facing away mate and the same with the shockers. Stops them binding on the bush and shortening the life of the bush

True. I had the radius arms off recently and decided to paint it all up in por 15. Love the ceramic like finish but its too shiny.
