FRPP gets my vote! OP, Ford Racing has 2 different versions... The M-4300-G1 is for the older model mustangs i.e 04 and below which didnt use panhard bars.. The M-4300-G2 is for 05+ which is what they call a "low profile" version to clear any panhard bar weather it be stock or aftermarket...
For future reference, the FRPP Cover DOES clear pretty well. My panhard that came off a Saleen E-Car is bigger than stock and still has plenty of room to go. Thanks guys.
Here's some pics. I know, the panhard is not bolted up, but it did fit fine. I just forgot to get pics as we were wrapping up.
Just to throw it out there...I wouldn't use the gasket that comes with the Ford Racing girdle. Mine leaked and after calling Ford Racing, they recommended NOT using their gasket - just a crap load of sealant. Did just that and zero leaks.
Interesting. I had asked the same thing about leaks. They used the gasket and some sealant. They've done a few and had no issues. But I'll keep a look out.
PBStallis, I believe the load bolts push against the brackets that secure the differential inside the housing(I know I'm not using the correct terms here so correct me). I guess its added support for rigidity.
