The pinion angle was the last adjustment before the rear axle was welded to the saddles. This was crucial, and warranted a digital leveling device.The pinion angle was the last adjustment before the rear axle was welded to the saddles. T The new arms were bolted to the crossmember. The other end of the arms are pivoted to reach the rearend and then connected. At this point, attention was diverted to installing the rest of the panhard assembly.The other end of the arms are pivoted to reach the rearend and then connected. At this poi The panhard mounting plates were stitch-welded in place along with the panhard support brace.The panhard mounting plates were stitch-welded in place along with the panhard support bra The upper shock mounts were butted up directly to the mounting plates and tacked in place. Using a hydraulic lifting device helped to center and support the panhard crossmember. Due to the expertise of the HTH installers, they had the dimensions memorized. For the rest of us, the instructions provided the proper measurements.Using a hydraulic lifting device helped to center and support the panhard crossmember.

Having the lower shock mount already connected made the upper easier to connect.The rearend was lifted up and the shocks were installed. Having the lower shock mount alre We connected the panhard bar to the lower shock mount. After connecting the bar to the panhard crossmember, we leveled the bar 90 degrees to the tires.After connecting the bar to the panhard crossmember, we leveled the bar 90 degrees to the We reinstalled the interior, carpeting and gas tank and gave everything a final once over.
