    Is this useful for regular guys that just pull a fifth wheeler a couple times a year, and use it as a passenger vehicle, grocery getter the rest of the time, or is it just for the guys that put a lift kit on to keep the rear axle straight? I am going to get an SCT and exhaust, so I'll be stoplight racing occasionally as well!

    For starters is that a pic of your dog,,,if so I of my favorite breeds...

    I will answer yes to all the above, from the gathered knowledge and experience from the Panhard’s that are out there and my personal experiences.
    In towing, I myself (although) with a lower HD tow a lot of weight and with varied terrain my work trailer. Have been very pleased on how much it was stabilized by the Panhard set-up.

    As soon as we get a kit out there any start getting some feed back I will be better equipped to answer your questions a little more accquirtly..GG

    No, it's not my dog. I have a big chocolate lab with a huge head for a lab, but nothing like this mastiff. I was just looking for info about the breed and came upon this monster, so I copied it. Very impressive dog. They claim to have one that is something like 350# and 9 feet long with the tail. I dunno. Like to see it. I raced sled dogs for 15 years, so I have a lot of time in with our best friends. They saved my life in Alaska (ice bridge fell through) so they really have been my best friends.

    a panhard bar for any truck that sits on leafs will be a great improvement. when hauling trailers it will be a big plus.

    Why would you want the panhard to sit on the leaves that would defeat the purpose ??? The panhard needs to be mounted on the frame and conect to the diff so that sidewards motion of the axle doesn't occur

    Dbl G how much lift will your panhard compensate for, also is the SD bar going to be more heavy duty than the f-150 bar ?? I can't wait for the bars to come out !!

    In yit da new

    Here they be Gent's,,,,,
    The top plate with five holes and the larger flat plate are the new beginning, I will be dropping these off with the bender Wednesday and hopefully picking them up Friday or Saturday.
    I have a friend here that is going to Guinea pig these for you boy's.
    The frame brackets are 1/4 Plate and the risers are 3/16 Plate. Most likely lt these will only come with the Full Differential Brackets and they be 3/16's also.

    Any Idea's ??

    So I didn't get a chance to pick these bad boy's up from the Bender today however they are formed and ready for the welder on Monday.

    I should have the full differential bracket by Thursday , Friday......I am going to fit it on my friends stock 03 F-250 to see how she fits and if all is good One will be heading Jody's way in the next two weeks..

    The Dif. bracket will have two adjustment holes and the frame piece has five...
