Westley Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) So yesterday I got around to fitting both my Adjustable Panhard rod and Rear anti roll bar, on the test drive I had frequent clunking noises, i checked it over when I got home noticed two bolts on the bottom of the Let's say droplinks weren't fully tight, nipped them up, went out again and only heard the noise once. And on the 15 mile drive to work today it only did it at 2 extreme points in road where one side was hitting a higher point than the other side, e.g. Coming out of my car park which is a slight downhill moment so one side will be higher than the other when leaving at a turn it makes the noise, anyone have any suggestions on what to check?

adzy Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 What was it? Gonna be fitting my rear arb soon, so wouldn't mind knowing what to watch for! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Westley Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 Well I fitted it and I jacked the axle up so it was acting as if the wheels were on the weight of the car, but there was still a lot of arch gap, so I just had to loosen the drop link bar things off while the car was on its wheels and adjust them a bit so they were suited to how the car sits when on it's own weight rather than it being jacked up and it's all good now! ☺️ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Di_Bodi Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Is the wheel rubbing gone Westley after installing that Panhard? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Westley Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 It does at the moment, as I set it to the same length as the standard panhard rod, I've not had chance to get it aligned correctly yet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nanglebadger Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Was gonna say -I had this when my RARD was installed; turned out the chap who fitted it didnt apply any grease to the bar when installing, meaning it clunked like a bollox everytime i went over a bump. simple fix but just something to bear in mind for those fitting them.
