Adjustable Panhard Rod
 |
Now you can center the rear end of your Volvo and improve the handling with one simple upgrade. The ipd adjustable panhard rod uses zinc plate chromoly steel tubing and heavy duty polyurethane bushings to provide long life and increased performance in hard cornering situations. When you raise or lower your Volvo, the panhard rod will push the rear axle off to one side, offsetting the centerline of the driveshaft, and causing rear alignment problems. The offset is not by much, usually around 1/2”- 3/4” (when lowering your car), but this small amount can cause a number of problems including increased tire wear, bushing wear, and uneven handling. With the ipd adjustable panhard rod, you can re-center your rear axle in about 20 minutes with a jack and some end wrenches. Another advantage is the heavy-duty poly bushings, which have much less deflection, and will help keep the rear more centered and planted around corners. If you are putting ipd lowering springs and swaybars on, or installing rear overload springs, then top off the package with an ipd adjustable panhard rod.
Please note, this rod does have a bend in it to match the stock fitment. Please check fitment listed below to ensure products will fit your specific vehicle. Some products may include or exclude some model years or engine and transmission combinations. The products listed on our website are for Volvos sold in the North American market. Many of the parts are exactly the same as those used in other markets, however we cannot guarantee fitment for those markets.
ipd does not charge your credit card until the product actually ships from our warehouse.

Easy to install and easier than having old panhard rod re-bushed.

Very easy to install, took about 15 minutes with a lift to center the rear end with a tape measurer. Nice to have with a lowered Volvo. Looks great too!
