With a panhard rod, the location of the axle will change as the ride height changes - you'll only be able to center it at one particular height - the change can be minimized by having the panhard rod horizontal with the vehicle in it's normal loaded condition, but, the greater the angle that the rod sits at, the greater the sideways movement.

I thought I would just use this thread instead of starting another. I have just installed my td panhards with a very rough adjustment as is going in for an alignment rotate and balance so figured they could do the whole lot at once. My problem is that my steering wheel is now about 45 degrees off centre. Will this recentre once it's aligned correctly?
