Each time I head off road for some decent wheeling I come back home and the nut holding the front panhard to the chassis bracket has loosened. I first noticed it when it was fairly loose after a bit of a click sound when going around gentle corners. Ever since then I have kept an eye on it.
My concern is that I have now tightened the nut about 4 times. Each time I have had to tighten it about half a turn. There is now bugger all room left for the rubber boot and I feel that if I keep tightening it that I will just be stretching the threaded bolt attaching to the ball. If that was to slap on the highway I would hate to think what would happen.
Has this happened to anyone else? My stocko (OEM) rod end attaching to the steering box is still sweet(second photo). I bought the front adjustable panhard off a local dealer up here less then 2 years ago when I bought some wheels/tyres from them. They are not a sponsor on here but I might have to give Wooders a call (just don't know the brand of the panhard rod/size of the thread).
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
