All of you quit it, :D..looks like when I lower the Landy it might still be off....:rolleyes:
Now do me a favor, call and ask Paddock Spares why they not answering their phone, I have been up since 4 AM my time trying to order some parts :)

I wouldn't worry about it until you get it back on the ground.
I think you would have noticed if your chassis has got bent :eek: It would have to be a hell of a bend I reckon, given where the radius arms fix to. As has been said, panhard rod or radius arm bushes would be where I would be looking first. IF it is out of alignment! Look at it first thing in the morning, when the rum's worn off from the night before. ;)
 
You have a 2" lift, and if your panhard rod is standard then it's too short by roughly half an inch - and will pull the axle across to the drivers side. You could just cut and sleeve your existing rod rather than buying an adjustable one.

Ahhhhhh interesting Boguing. I have not taken the landy off of the jack and since the engine is out, the Landy is sitting way higher than 2 inches which will make it seem worse with the left side wheel being inward.

I just removed the steering box and will replace all the suspension rubbers at the same time, so will look at doing the mods as well. I have pretty good weld/fab facilities at my place with machining facilities too so I might as well make an adjustable panhard rod.

Thanks so much for your input Boguing, much appreciated.
 
Boguing, you are the only mate who did not think that my observation was rum induced like the other jealous sober clowns here LOL, all good fun and teasing.

One of the guys here did ask if I had an adjustable panhard rod leading into that direction, thanks for the help again. Upon doing some more research on making the panhard rod, since every piece of sh!t you want to buy here costs an arm and a testicle, I came across a great thread.......
