Adjustable Panhard Rod by Hotchkis®. Quantity: 1 per Pack. This is one single replacement Panhard rod that attaches to the rear axle of your vehicle. Heavy gauge reinforced steel provides higher-than-OEM strength and rigidity to eliminate flex which allows rear axle to shift sideways during heavy cornering. Adjustable ends allow axle centering if additional clearance is needed for upsized wheels and tires. Manufactured with precision tolerances, high-articulation end joints, and TIG-welded reinforced steel tubing. Greasable polyurethane bushings offer smooth travel without unwanted squish or decay. Durable powder coat finish resists corrosion, scratches, contaminants, and discoloration.
Adjustable Type: Double Adjustable |
Tubing Wall Thickness: 0.095" |

When suspension components twist around in their mounts, axles can shift out of alignment – causing excess strain and wear of U-joints and related seals. Hotchkis offers replacement track rods that prevent those problems by rigidly keeping axles affixed in position. Each arm is built with a higher grade of steel than OEM-spec trailing arms, increasing stiffness so that the driver truly benefits from the vehicle control gained by proper suspension geometry, alignment, and tire grip. Steel sections of the Panhard rod are joined by a Tungsten Gas Insert (TIG) welding process that provides clean, even welds with an even, consistent level of bonding strength on all areas – eliminating inconsistencies which create weak points and areas prone to metal fatigue or failure.
Polyurethane bushings that are included provide superior cushioning to prevent harsh vibrations being transferred to the passenger area, and their resilient nature won’t compromise your vehicle’s handling by squishing flat the way rubber will. Polyurethane also offers the ability to perform extremely well under extreme temperatures and resist collapsing, deforming, or crumbling after being exposed to road grime, salt, and leaking oils. Whatever design your vehicle’s suspension is, Hotchkis Panhard Rods and bushings are customized to fit your make and model. Hotchkis proudly builds all components in the United States, and backs them with a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
Founded in Santa Fe Springs, California in the late 1960s during the height of the original muscle car boom, Hotchkis® got its start building products that blessed GM, Mopar, and Ford performance cars with new abilities to corner and handle with stability at racetrack speeds. As the company's reputation for building quality products grew, Hotchkis components soon found their way onto all kinds of vehicles that were not made to go fast in any way, shape, or form. It didn't take long before station wagons, convertibles, and pickup trucks were wheeling around tracks all over Southern California with the tenacity of sports cars. After decades of developing suspension-enhancing products that have led to victories in championship racing events, slalom track competitions, and street challenges, Hotchkis has refined and perfected their manufacturing techniques to become the internationally respected company they are today.
