What about the Torsen rear diff with the aluminum finned cover?

If going with the Steeda Sport springs will the panhard bar above hit the diff cover, making a relocation bracket necessary?


.

I installed Steeda Sports and my J&M cleared fine in the stock location.

Damn good deal. Hope these sell quick so the price on the next batch is this good. If I didn't already have on I'd definitely be ordering.

Thank you for the info ... I have Steeda Sports coming and the same PB you mention is already on a brown truck somewhere ... can't wait to get everything installed!

I presume they are poly bushings. Can you share some more about the quality of the bushings?

Is this bulk buy ONLY for the poly-poly? I noticed on your website the $110 panhard bar has an option between poly-poly, poly-heim, and heim-heim.

I am interested in the poly chassis-heim axle. Is this part of the bulk buy? Paypal ready if you can accomodate.

Got mine this week, shipping to Canada was only a week by USPS in case anyone up here was thinking of getting one.

Part looks to be as good quality as the other more expensive ones I have seen/had before, but the Stallion part comes with a small pack of thread locker which is a nice touch.

I'm thinking of getting it powdercoated before it goes on in the spring, can anyone think of any reason why I shouldn't?

Thanks again.

There's no reason not to powder coat it, other than many people like the look of the zinc. We do offer them powder coated in black for a little extra money.

This price is only good for the poly/poly single-adjustable bar. However, I'll PM you a deal on the setup you're looking for.

Just ordered mine, and a support brace as well. No more off-center axle housing for me! LOL

Thanks Tad!

Unless there is more than half a mil of zinc, underneath the yellow chromate, I would suggest highly that it gets powdercoated. The zinc will act as a good bond for the powdercoat, and will further protect against corrosion. In cars that see salt and harsh weather, or near a saltwater environment, zinc is not a good protection for longterm. If it has a hexavalent chromate, it can generally withstand over 180 hours of saltspray, in testing. Unless the part is sent to plater with an ASTM B633 spec, with a SC3, I'd definitelt paint or powdercoat.

Thank you for the info. The company that does our zinc coating tells us that it holds up pretty well based on other vehicle applications they've used the same coat on. However, it is fairly new to us on the bars. We've used it on some of our brackets for a long time and they hold up very well. I edited the original post to clarify the powder coating offers better protection, in case anyone doesn't know that.
