blk01acr Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 When I put a straight edge vertically against the rear wheels and measure the distance to the body, the passenger side is + 1 inch relative to the same measurement on the drivers side. I just had all four rear trailing arms replaced to cure the "death roll" problem at highway speeds. The trailing arm replacement cured this but now when you either accelerate or decelerate at speeds greater than 40 MPH, it darts in one direction or the other (to the right under acceleration and to the left when decelerating). It tracks good and straight on the highway at steady speeds. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushnut Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 sounds like a pan hard bar issue.. It keeps the axle centered. could be another bushing thats worn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyeager Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 The panhard bar keeps the rear suspension centered in the vehicle. But if you lift your vehicle, it pulls the axle over to one side slightly. This doesn't cause any particular problem with the car, it's just a side effect of lifting it. Has your truck been lifted in the rear any? If so, then you would expect to see this. If you want to fix this, you can get an adjustable panhard bar. Or you can get a panhard bar drop bracket, to drop the body side mount down to level out the panhard bar. The cause of your push/pull problem isn't the panhard bar though. What you are describing is a problem with the rear links you just had replaced. One of them is bad...or one of your mounts are broken. It could be serious. Get it professionally inspected ASAP.
