For those of you who have Torque arms and Panhard bars, how was the SOTP performance? And did any of you do the install yourself? Was it tough and how long did it take? I just got my MM TA and PHB. Any tips for the do-it-yourselfer suspension guy? Thanks

Well, I have half of that maximum motorsports setup. I installed the panhard bar on a few months ago and I am still very impressed by how it reacts into turns. It does what it is supposed to do. As far as the install, I took my time and rechecked everything before the drilling and tightening was done. It took five hours or so. I don't have exhaust clearance issues but some do so be ready for it.
I want to get the torque arm but not looking forward to the install. It is supposed to be harder than the panhard bar and there will be h pipe interference. MM says to change the spring rates after install too. I'm sure the TQ arm will help a great deal extra but I'm not ready to deal with the hassle yet. Take pics and post your progress as you go.

sorry so short but...

Install is not too bad if your good with tools. Otherwise get some help.

SOTP is GREAT with both the TA and PHB. I used Griggs stuff but the MM is ok too. You'll be amazed at the rear traction you'll have. Straight line traction is improved but not staggering while cornering traction is unreal! Have fun.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll take the pics as I go along.
