hi gojeep, that was the problem before as the custom made panhard ran at a diff angle then my draglink (panhard bracket was to long and drop pitman arm was way to big) ,now I have gone with the cj power steer pitman arm about 26mm drop over the stock xj one and a adjustable panhard (like woodes type just a bet more bend in it) and the angles look to be ok with this just don't know what it will flex like.

I thought you raised the axle end of the panhard mounting hole back up to stock? This would have given you the same angle from both the drag link and the panhard rod again. Lowering the drag link with a dropped pitman arm changes the angles relation once more between the two.

Sorry gojeep, The panhard bracket was the body mount bracket not the diff end mount and I still run the stock mount on that end(the old one had a small superflex end on it and did not work at all to big) put a string line on the two to day and angle is right, but I have made the panhard right only by bending it that way which is wrong as I need the mounts parallel, I will fix this asap,will do the diff end (only using the drop arm to clear my rancho steering damper and to fix steer linkage angles will be going to OTK setup soon)

This is so funny. Neither have I !!! It is our #2 car. I only use it for long trips. It is not garaged where I live. Worried the tyres haven't moved and the engine has not turned over. Hope the battery can crank out a start!!! Ha Ha Ha Ha...

I want to drive the thing 10x across the country and beat it up on a bomb road or down a washed away track....

I am insanely jealous of those going out to Lake Eyre over Easter.

Pulled the harmonic balancer - totally stuffed.


I've just found that East Coast 4WD sell them on Ebay for $100 with freight.

Anyone used one of these or EC4WD ?
