I wouldn't think the panhard has any impact on straight line acceleration a=
s it's function is to locate the axle side to side. In cornering, it should=
prevent lateral shock or flexing, as well as linkage binding you might exp=
erience if the leaf springs are providing lateral location. The torque will=
help acceleration by keeping axle wind up under control under power.
My torque arm is a custom setup for the Tiger by Griggs Racing, but I'd pro=
bably go with Dan's kit if I were to do another Tiger. The Griggs suspensio=
n also has coil overs in place of the leafs, and a Watts link to replace th=
e panhard rod, so I've never thought about Panhard bar mods. Can the stock =
leaf spring mounts prevent lateral motion and support sufficient lateral lo=
ads in hard cornering? I think I'd rather have a panhard bar (or a Watts li=
nk) and let the springs only provide longitudinal location.
Best regards,
Stephen Waybright
