Thread: Pan Hard Bar Install Question

Tweet

Doe's it matter on which side you install the pan hard bar . If I try to install frame bracket on drivers side it will interfere with the brake line mount and breather . It will work better on the the passenger frame rail .

In my opinion it makes no difference which frame rail you mount to for a street application. More important to me is the location of the axle mount, which ideally is at or very near the center of the axle so that the resultant force is applied more equally to both tires as you load the bar in cornering. Here is a good source of data - http://www.jimmyjudd.com/jimmy/panhard.htm

It works on both sides as long as you have shackles on BOTH ends of spring.
