Need To Get My Rear Centered

Hi everyone
Have been gone for awhile. Got laid off and had to put the truck on hold.
I'm trying to get back to work on it. I lowered the rear w/ ECE's spring kits with the shock relocators and adj panhard bar. I have search and can not find the FAQ on how to measure to center the rearend and install the bar. Any help is appreciated. Also hope to return to 'BLUE' soon
Thanks MDC

Re: Need To Get My Rear Centered

if you have the adjustable panhard bar, you just measure from fenderlip to tire on both sides (with the rear jacked up and jackstands supporting the axle, not the frame) and then adjust the panhard bar till it is centered.

....and when you are done, you will enjoy the good ride and drive that it will have, as I do. I only wish my 96 rode as well.
