With a booming aftermarket for the 2005-2014 Mustang in full swing, it can be a bit confusing as to which components to choose for your build. We see it all of the time; our readers will reach out to us, asking which “this should” we go with for “that.” The thing is, there’s no one answer — as each build is unique in its own way; what it is, how it’s used, and more often than not, it’s ultimate power goals.
What might work for your friends’s build, might not be suitable for yours, so you really need to make an educated decision when it comes time for your purchase. That’s why our friends at AmericanMuscle laid out three different adjustable Panhard bars from the hottest manufactures (BMR, Whiteline and SR, respectively), to see which one would be best for your build.

Other benefits to this modification include reduced wheel hop, improved traction, as well as added handling ability.
