How to adjust adj. panhard rod...

[redbird00]

ok first off i know how to adjust it, with a freakin wrench, but how much to turn it and what not... my car torque steers to the left real bad, and i'm hoping tightening or loosening on side of the adj. phr it'll help... thanks

Changing the rear axle alignment will not correct what you're calling torque steer.

We dont have torque steer, but if you spin the tires you could have inertial movement of the axle left/right depending on how straight the wheel is.

If thats not it, you just need a new front alignment.

Asjusting is ONLY to be done to recenter the rear at your current ride height, and once you do that, you must realign the front to the rear.

well when i launch, and the tires spin it goes to the left alot... could this be because one tire has more traction than the other?

the rear swings to the left or the car turns left?

[redbird00]

the rear of the car swings left, the front is fine...

yeah you're just getting more spin on the right side than the left, normal for an Fbody.

but it happens all the time... on the pavement, concrete surfaces, at the track? i just got a set of drag radials, gonna go try them out wed. night, and if it still does it, i'll have to look more in it, but if not, its just the tires...
