I purchased a crx with an MB rear straight axle. my question is... is it supposed to have a pan hard bar? or another means of preventing side sway in the rear end??? or is it designed to where the wheelie bars take care of that?

 

Normally you need some sort of locating device i.e. panhard bar, diagonal link

 

thats what i was thinking, but was wondering why it wasnt done along with everything else?

 

Don't know, maybe it is like that so you can mount it in the proper location for your chassis.

 

The MB axle only has 2 heims on it, where it pivots on the chassis. The other end of the "trailing arms" are welded to the axle. It can't move side to side unless something flexes.

 

thanks tony!
