I'm wondering if I should re-use this method when I install my new chrome front end? My car does not have a panhard bar. All the panhard kit's I've seen require welding to the frame. Since my car is finished and painted, I don't want to weld/repaint.

I've been thinking as I drive this car that a panhard bar isn't necessary. But maybe that's because this setup has been doing it's job? I know lots of guys don't run a panhard bar, others say it's mandatory. I have very little experience driving a buggy sprung strait axle.

Thoughts?
