Maintenance tonight after work in preparation for a beach trip in a few weeks.

Need to put the new tires on and clean it up still.

Put my Panhard back in factory location. Turns out I’m not running enough lift for the bracket and it makes the cruiser drive like dog turd.

Also replaced a lower arm I bent. Really should have built bracing on the arm but on very limited time to work on things.

I had the Cruiser detailed today.

Not exactly happy with the results.. They must have sprayed some chemical cleaner on it. All the metal is cloudy now and the body isn’t overly much better.

I picked it up after hours so I’m going to take it back tomorrow and hope they have magic left in their pocket.

What’s your lift?

You don’t think that jacked up control arm had anything to do with the dog turd driving?

I’m running about 1.5” total lift. Tough dog springs and dobinsons IMS rear shocks.

It actually drove better with the bent lower arm.

But I’m back to stock location now and it’s fine. In fact my trac bar was hitting the LRA tank bracket under compression in the top hole.

Interesting. I need to roll under mine and really have a look. Yours isn’t the only one I’ve read about making contact.
