Called up my local Nissan Dealer today regarding panhard bushes .... all I wanted was the upper and lower front panhard bushes ...

He wanted to sell me a new standard panhard with bushes attached ...... WTF man!??!?!

Most Nissan dealers will say the same thing, however, if you have the part number for the bushes, they usually realise that they do actually stock them.

Bank transffer is always an option. Most Australian businesses don't like to take forein credit cards, so that's the rout I always go. No problems there.
Now that I have your attention, let me hijack thethread for a second. I have a 3" lift with 36" tires. I know I don't really need adjustable panhards, but I hate how the diffs look all to one side.
Besides the obvious, can anyone tell me what other benefits, if any, I would get if decide to put on a set (front and rear) of superior's panards?
Thanx for everyones patience...

Sure is:
- Realigns your shocks back to normal position/stroke
- Realigns your springs for proper action
- Realigns your front radius arm bushes (unloads the angled stress)
- Realigns rear arm (upper and lower) bush angle stress
- Corrects horizontal alignment of tailshafts and uni's
- Stops the "short" side (passenger side) rear tyre scrubbing inside of arch on compression
- Stops stones, mud, water and other crap getting flicked all up the "long" side (drivers side).
