Hi All,
Are there different sizes for panhard rods? Mine is 780mm from center to center but it is very bent.
I can get one here that is 820mm (this one is straight though)

Are they all the same size frm the disco's?

they are the same size from factory but you can buy aftermarket adjustable ones to cater for suspension lift
google ba3669 as example

Cheers Jamesmartin. I want a factory one. I was worried that the 40mm difference was to much to be from the bent. I guess it is just that bent.

Thanks a million for your swift reply!!

Turns out there must be more than one size panhard rod. Got the one from 820mm center to center and it looked way out. So I drove to my mate who also has a 2003 Disco facelift and his is shorter as well.

Does anyone know where to order these from (I want to avoid the stealer)? Paddock sent me the complete wrong one so I would like to know for sure I get the right one.

According to RAVE RBI100040 is for vehicles with vin pre 2A999999 & RBI000090 for post. The later version is 30mm is shorter.
You probably need to google them to see who sells what - although Brit-car are usually pretty good on the less common bits.

cheers Pawl, I will check Brit-car out. It seems the facelift model is indeed shorter. I really need to read RAVE better.
