    Questions about the panhard bar and whats the right thing to do with it after the lift. I have read about people doing nothing, people doing the extension bracket and some doing the adjustable bar. But I've also read that either the bracket or adjustable (can't remember which one) interferes with the drive shaft/gas tank skid? Someone point me in the direction. I have a trip in 5 weeks and want to make sure i'm good to go. Any feedback or prior experiences are appreciated.

    2nd lifted 4Runner, no replaces panhard bar or trailing arms. No issues yet. 1st 4Runner went 60k miles (traded it in) with zero issues on stock panhard bar.

    Thanks for your comment. I was checking your build out. Nice! I have a 2017 Off Road Premium in Silver. Had a White 2016 Trail as well. I'm always getting something new... The perks of working for a Toyota Dealership haha
