Toyota Landcruiser 80 100 78 79 Front Adj Panhard Rod

Adjustable Panhard Rod for FRONT of Landcruiser 80, 100, etc.

If you have gone beyond a 2" lift on a coil rig I bet your axles are not dead set in the middle of your rig. Get a ruler and measure the distance from the outer edge of your tyre to the side of the car. Now go to the other side and do the same measurement. Different huh! The higher you go the worse this gets. It's due to the radius arc of the panhard rod - as it points further downward with a taller lift the horizontal distance becomes shorter. So you need longer ones...!

If all you have is a 2 inch lift, my bet is you will get away with the slight variance and not worry about panhards. 3-4" lifted rigs really do have to get longer panhard rods.

The adjustable panhard rods come with RUBBER bushes and can be adjusted in length to suit your own needs as heights vary with age and weights, etc. Replacement bushes are readilly available if ever you need to replace them - they the are same size as factory bushes.

These panhard rods are significantly heavier than standard panhard rods and are much stronger.

STOP PRESS !! Have you ever got a shudder in your rig that's really really bad. Some call it the death wobbles. 80% of the time this is the bushes in your panhard rod. After getting a price from the dealer you will agree it's cheaper to get an adjustable panhard rod with bushes, than just genuine bushes alone.

Beware of cheap after market copies - If you don't buy right you will be supplied with a panhard with urethane bushes. Urethane lasts about 6 weeks and then you are up for those bushes again that prompted you to buy the panhard in the first place .. DOH! Also - some cheap panhards dont run the correct size bushes and crushes and they can undo to panhard nut off the diff and yes the panhard will fall off - We know because we have been there and done that with our own rig and we won't let it happen to a customer's car!

Panhard rods are straight forward to instal yourself in about the time it takes to drink 1 can of beer. All you need is a big spanner or socket and a can for each person. Changing the panhard rod length will not affect your wheel alignment (other than track) except you will find the steering wheel direction will change. A Tip - When fitting, make sure the ignition key has not locked the steering.

About "Hobzees4wdshop"...Also known as 4H or The 4wd Shop...Find our eBay store here:

We specialise in supplying 4WD and Automotive parts to the Do It Yourself  handy person. Only 5% of our customers are locals. We sell all over Australia and around the world. Not surprisingly we are very popular in regional areas where country folk rely upon us to get products to their remote cattle stations, mine sites and alike. We deliver to construction sites, caravan parks, off shore drilling rigs  ... where ever.

We are great at selling other people's parts as well as producing our own 4H branded parts where we couldn't otherwise find a good product. We are probably Australia's best connected 4WD outlet with access to virtually any recognised offroad product so it's no wonder a stack of 4WD shops and mechanics use us for parts they can't otherwise source themselves.

We also partner with the industry's most professional associations being the AAAA and the 4wd Industry Council for supplier contacts and relations as well as both local and international distribution channels, not to mention improved quality control, business processes and their recognition at government and authority levels.

Our new warehouse at 18 Latham St Mornington Vic 3931 is not new any more. We have well and truly settled in and weathered the turbulent ups and downs of this recession. What recession? We are pleased to announce our recession was short lived and we were among the first of the employers out there to put more people on just so we could keep up.

Our business model is to be Australia's biggest and best selling machine of 4WD and Automotive parts. We dont have a workshop, we dont fix anything and we dont fit anything apart from the odd set of wheels and tyres - we just sell it. When you buy from us online or over the phone your goods are often shipped straight from our suppliers to you. Sometimes we arrange different suppliers to send goods your way and you can receive several packages that make up a complete outfit. We are like a parts broker.

You may pick up your ebay items directly from our warehouse if we know beforehand that you are coming. Please call our friendly staff on 03 5975 5533 to make arrangements because often we might not carry what you are after in our Mornington depot .

We use Australia Post's eParcel service. This is a registered mail service that requires you to sign for your goods and has an online tracking system so you can see if your items are close to being delivered or even waiting for you at the post office. The Auspost tracking website is : www.ausposttracking.com.au. You may ask us for your consignment number if you would like to track the progress of your goods.

If your items are too big for Aussie Post we will use a courier suited to your area. When suppliers send goods to you they all use couriers as well. A courier will need a street address (not a PO Box) and you will need to sign for the goods. We can't accept responsibility for goods stolen from your front door step and so they are instructed not to leave items unattended. On rare occasions you might incur a redelivery fee if the courier has to make repeated attempts to deliver your items or onsend to an alternate address. We too will send by courier if your goods can not be delivered by Australia Post.  In every case, you can track the progress of your goods whether they be with couriers or in the eParcel system.

The items we sell come not only come with a 12 month warranty but also a 7 day satisfaction guarantee that what you purchased is what you wanted. Some items we sell are discontinued clearance or liquidation stock from suppliers shutting shop. Understandably these cant be replaced once sold out but this will be made apparent in the item description if this applies.

A lot of people like to call us and make arrangements verbally over the phone and we can also take credit card details over the phone too. In fact that works for most people.
 
If you are an overseas customer then we can only accept PayPal  from you for your and our security - sorry - no exceptions. We get a lot of local and overseas customers using Pay pal and we find it to be very safe and fair. However it does cost us about 3% in Pay Pal fees so it's no surprise we prefer if local Australian customers bank into the following bank account ... Please remember to use your ebay name in the description field so we know who paid us.
