Aluminum Diff cover - panhard clearance

Looking at the aluminum diff covers with the bolts to brace the main caps. Anyone used one of these on a trailing arm setup with a longer/not stock panhard bar?

I have a porterbuilt setup I'm installing an the bar runs from the dr side to the pass side at the trailing arm. I'm looking specifically at the LPW low profile cover #201-12T, It says on Jegs that it wont interfere with the bar on a lowered truck but I'm wondering if thats more for a stock bar that isn't as long?

While these photos are of a stock location panhard on a '65, it may give some idea of how far the cover sticks out.

Thanks! I would assume that the ultimate cover is thicker than the low profile one to so it should have a little more clearance on top of that....

Right. You should have a little more clearance with that cover.
