Panhard rod

A Panhard rod is a suspension link that both locates the rear axle housing laterally and controls side-to-side movement. Factory S197 Mustang Panhard rods are made from weak U-shaped stamped steel with soft rubber bushings that allow excessive deflection under load. BMR's suspensions PHR005 Panhard rod is made 1.25-inch, 0.120-inch wall DOM tubing for unrivaled strength. The PHR005 features greaseable, 95-durometer bushings, which add a solid, more responsive feel over the stock rubber bushings. BMR's bushings are internally fluted, which allows grease to evenly coat the inner sleeve, keeping grease in the bushing under high compression loads. These flutes also direct grease to the outer edge of the bushing, keeping the thrust surface lubricated. This efficient lubrication ensures quiet, reliable operation over the life of the bushings. BMR's suspension designed the PHR005 to work well for street performance, drag race, and road race applications. The heavy-duty construction eliminates the deflection seen in stamped-steel Panhard rods. Other Panhard rods on the market include rubber bushings that will deflect under heavy loads. The 95-durometer polyurethane bushings of the PHR005 reduce bushing deflection, giving you much-improved, repeatable handling characteristics on the street, starting line, or in aggressive corners. The non-adjustable design makes the PHR005 great for stock height Mustangs. This gives you all the strength you need for great handling without huge increases in NVH. When performance is a must, rely on BMR's suspension! BMR's suspensions PHR005 non-adjustable Panhard rod is available in black hammertone and red powdercoat for long-lasting good looks. Installation time is about 1 hour. Proudly made in the U.S.A.

Note for Australian and European Markets

Unless otherwise stated, this product may be engineered for use in Left-Hand Drive vehicles. Steering components, pedals, shifters, linkages, wing mirrors, instrument clusters, panhard rods/traction bars, drag links, brake boosters, brake or clutch lines, accelerator cables, heater cores, some master cylinders and adjacent parts can vary between LHD and RHD configurations. In some models compenents such as windscreen wiper arms, motors and linkages could differ in their size and orientation. Items such as floor mats & dash mats may have differences in their structure around the front row (or padding in different locations). In many cases items are identical depending on the design of the vehicle and part, but may have differing mounts, lengths or bolt patterns. Carefully review the product images and details to ensure suitability for your vehicle, or contact StreetFX support if you are unsure. Returns are not accepted for special order products.

Note for Pistons, Rings, Rotors, Rods and engine internals

Unless otherwise specified, some brands supply brake rotors, pistons, strut mounts, rods and rings separately. In some cases, titles may indicate plural, or 'set' - eg the term “ring set” often refers to the rings for a single piston only. If you’re unsure about what’s included with this product, please contact our team for clarification.

Images are supplied by the manufacturer and may be generic. While all efforts are made to provide accurate pictures, there may be differences in the actual product, such as colour, quantity, version, or included components.

Prevent your rear axle from moving side to side with BMR Suspension panhard bars. Factory bars use rubber bushings, allowing for deflection under a load. BMR panhard bars are made from heavy-walled tubing and employ either greasable polyurethane bushings or heavy-duty spherical bearings. Adjustable versions feature left hand and right hand threads for easy "on-car" adjustment. They are a must-have when lowering your ride or trying to fit the widest tires possible in your wheelwell.
