a panhard bar is a 3rd link, like a trailing arm, expect the other direction, it actually serves to physically locate the rear end under the truck and adds no tennsion to anything, adjustable or not. A swaybar is a spring that helps transfer weight during cornering. It acts like and 3rd spring besides your 2 coil springs. It does in no way serve as a link to physically hold your rear end in place.

The panhard bar runs from the rear driver side single post mount to the pass side of the rear end. I use the polys on it becuse they last longer and there a snap to install.
