    No adjustment left on my rear panhard

    Has anyone ever had to cut down a rear panhard on a Gq to get full adjustment out of it ?

    Considering these rods are not adjustable from factory you will have an aftermarket one on there. I can only assume the one on these is for a Patrol with a different height suspension lift. Where are you thinking of cutting it?

    I have a Gq waggon with Gu front and rear complete diff swap I told superior this when I ordered the rear adjustable panhard I have e phoned and emailed twice about it and they said that are all the same and that I have adjusted it wrong and re-sent the adjustment instructions, well I am not stupid and I have looked at it multiple times so I was supposed to go to there store to check it out and pick up more parts but now I am stuck at home and don't know when I will get there it was a brand new bar and the spring has been hitting the bump stop from day one

    Yeah I will take picture tomorrow of how close and how far the spring sits from the bump stop mount, I have measured from the chassis rail to the tire the left is a bit over 115 mm and the othet side is just under 110 mm so the diff needs to moved over to the right but there is no more adjustment left I even did superior suggestion witch I don't like and took the second lock nut out but that only gave me 5 mm at least it is very close and not touching any more, this lift kit from superior has been the biggest night mare and I thought they were suppose to be good, I just wish I paid them to do it now and saved the grief.

    Can you post a link of the lift kit you got and the panhard rod? Did you remove the upper and lower control arms at all?

    Yeah I replaced the upper control arms with adjustable ones and before the corvid-19 hit I was just about to take it up to superior to get long lower control arms done.

    Ok it took me a bit but I worked out how to post the link the only difference in the kit is that they sent me Dobbinsons front constant load springs of 50-100 kg and the rear of 250-350 kg constant load but I have a feeling that some one screwed up the matching of the springs to shocks, the front is 5 inch and the rear is 6 inch.
