Re: Make it handle
TECH TIP Ok lesson learned. I had made a panhard rod for the HellBoy out of 1 1/4" x .120 wall tubing, and it had a 20 deg bend in it to clear the torque arm. Last tuesday at AMP I bent it like a taco!! SO, bending a panhard rod more than 10 deg is going to create a big strain on it. To solve the problem I went to 1 3/8" x .188 wall. It's heavy, but it doesn't flex. food for thought.
