Centering the Rear End
I need to install my adjustable panhard bar and re-center my rear end after lowering. Should I measure from the frame to the brake backing plates? I tried search, but couldn't come up with it.
Thanks Mike

Re: Centering the Rear End
That's what I did when I bagged my old Mazda and it set nice and center.

Re: Centering the Rear End
yes frame to backing plate or if you have tires on the sidewall to the frame/you need to have weight on the frame and rear to center correctly//i use a ratchet strap from the trailing arm to the oppisite frame rail to pull the rear over to get it centered while installing the panhard

Re: Centering the Rear End
Thanks guys. The rear end is siting on jack stands with the weight of the truck on it (along with all the crap in the bed) Should be enough weight, huh?
The strap is a good idea cdowns
