Homemade Panhard Drop?
Has anyone made a homemade panhard drop? I'm wanting to get one, but $50+shipping from Toytec seems like a lot for what it actually is.

I didn't make a pan hard drop but an adjustable pan hard bar.

I made one using the threaded part of a 4runner tierod end.

It cost nothing to make except my time and some electricity.

DOUS is using it now and he is beating the hell out of it. Easy to adjust.

mine is holding up great, trail tested and approved and thumbs up for good price lol

I've in the planning stages for making my own right now....was probably going to use some 1/8" Angle Iron butted up and welded in place......does this sound solid enough???

i would use 3/16, panhard bar takes a lotta stress when flexing so i would use as much metal as you can

What keeps this thing from spinning around the upper bolt?

You have to weld it to the stock mount. Just like all PH drops.
