Panhard Correction Kits for the 4th gen - fix that panhard bar angle!
Hey guys - I've been doing weld-on panhard correction kits for the 3rd gens for some time, and have had quite a few requests to make them for 4th gen 4Runners as well.
Well, I just found out yesterday that my 5th gen kit fits the 4th gen also (and apparently the FJ, too.)
Check it out if you're interested - it'll return the panhard to level, and correct the handling issues that come with having an angled bar back there.

I've been looking for this to help with my 3" rear lift... thanks!
So, I'd just order the 5th Gen option on your website? 4th and 5th Gen are identical?

Awesome, I'll definitely be getting one when I lift mine! Panhard drop is generally considered a pretty important part of lifting over 2" in the Pathfinder community I come from so I was surprised to not really seeing anybody discussing it here.

An adjustable panhard will center the axle, but the panhard will still be on an angle, so when the suspension compresses the bar will force the axle to the side in a more dramatic manner than if you had a correction kit/what it's like stock. This is why when you're lifted the rear end can feel funny going over a big bump on the highway.

Yep...that's what I figured. Pushes it out more since the bar is extended. Well, since I'm about to do dial in my front suspension with new LCA, UCA, gusseting, and some frame chopping...I may as well do these since the welder will be utilized. Get the rear REALLY dialed in.

How do I buy this? Am I the only one that can't figure where your website is? I swear I know the passcode. Now I guess I can take adjustable bar off my future purchases list...
This is also a good idea to keep in mind for when I get the diamond axle 9.5"

The link isn’t visible when viewing the forum via Tapatalk and I’m not sure there’s a setting we can change... it gets a little annoying at times.

so I borrowed Austin's 4th gen and my 5th gen PCK just plopped right down in position (it's blue because it's the 3D printed model - the actual PCKs are being cut and bent right now)
You can see how extreme the panhard angle gets on these lifted trucks - and how the upper hole is going to resolve this on Austin's truck:

Great illustration of what a big difference it makes. Definitely definitely on the shopping list.

Austin will have to answer as to how much it is supposed to be, but it measures out to 105 unladen (basically 4")
